On  the  Stanley    Legend  and  the    Houses  of  Boteleu, 
FiTz-AiLWARD,  Lathom,  and  Stanley,  &c. 

— "  a  most  anclent  and  distinguished  bearing — the  Eagle  and  Ciiild." 

VVaverley,  iii.  349. 

It  is  generally  known  that  the  ancient  ancl  chivalrous  house  of 
Stanley,  branching  from  the  Aldithleys,  assumed  its  local  narae 
from  the  Staffordshire  manor  of  Stanley,  and  that,  on  a  subse- 
quent  acquisition  of  the  Forestership  of  Wirral  in  Cheshire,  it 
adopted  the  allusive  arms  so  often  triumphant  in  the  tournament 
and  the  battle-field — "  the  buck's  heads  on  a  bend  Azure."  To 
these  arms,  however,  at  the  close  of  ihe  fourteenth  century,  the 
junior,  but  most  distinguished  branch,  Stanley  of  Lathom 
AND  Knowsley,  added,  instead  of  their  former  bearing,  the  crest 
of  Me  eagle  and  cradled  infant — being  i\\e  previous  cognizance  of 
the  Lathoms,  to  whose  estates  they  succeeded  by  marriage,  and 
whose  descent  is  now  first  illustrated  from  records. 

The  first  known  male  ancestor  of  this  house  is  Henry,*  father 
of  Robert  lord  of  Lathom,  the  latter  of  whom  founded  Burs- 
cough  priory  in  Lancashire,  "  pro  anima  Henrici  R.  junioris  et 
pro  anima  Johannis  Comitis  de  Mortune,"  most  probably  during 
Richard's  crusade,  and  certainly  between  1173  (the  date  given 
to  John's  pi-ior  dignity)  and  1199,  that  of  his  accession.  But 
trudition  has  assigne<l  a  more  remote  origin,  the  said  Robert 
being  stated  •»  to   be  a  supposed   descendant   from   Orm,   and 

*■  Uoless  he  was  the  same  with  Henry  Fitz-Siward,  ^antee  in  Flixton  (Testa  de 
N.)  from  AJbert  de  Gredle,  the  advowson  of  which  place  Robert  Fitz-  Henrj  gare 
to  Borscoagh.

•i  ON    THE    STANLEY    LEGEND 

"credible  tradition"  to  describe  the  said  Orm  as  "  the  Saxon  pro- 
piietor  of  Halton,  who,  driven  from  his  possessions  in  Cheshire, 
established  himself  in  Lancashire,  and  by  his  marriage  with 
Alice  the  daughter  of  Herveus  (a  Norman  nobleman,  ancestor 
of  Tiieobald  Walter)  obtained  large  estates  in  this  county,"  and 
"  was  no  doubt  the  founder  of  the  church  which,  with  his  own 
name,  constitutes  that  of  the  parish"  of  Ormskirk.  (Baines, 
Lanc.  iv.  235.) 

Records  partly  confirm  and  partly  contradict  this.  In  con- 
firmation,  Domesday  proves  the  ejectment  of  Orme,  the  Saxon 
Lord  of  rieletune,c  and  the  Testa  de  Neville  states  the  marriage 
of  Onnus  Magnus  with  Ahz  dauffhter  of  Herveus.^  It  is  clear 
to  every  heraldic  eye  that  the  arms  of  Boteler  are  the  basis  of 
those  of  Lathom,^  with  a  difference  not  more  than  an  early  filial 
one ;  and  it  is  certain  from  tlie  Testa  de  Neville  that  the  La- 
thoms  were  the  heirs  of  Orme  Fitz-Ailward  as  to  a  knight's  fee 
ndjacent  to  Ormeskirk  ;  ^  the  said  Orme  and  Ailward  occurring 
precisely,  as  to  time,  in  the  space  between  Ormus  Magnus  their 
probable  ancestor  and  Ilobert  Fitz-Henry  otherwise  de  Lathom. 

But  in  order  to  connect  Fitz-Ailward,  his  probable  Saxon 
ancestors,  and  their  traditional  lands  with  the  Lathoms,  it  is  ne- 
cessary,  first,  to  vary  from  an  important  Lancashire  pedigree  8 
(that  of  the  knightly  family  of  Ashton  of  Ashton-under-Line), 
and  then  to  support  the  tradition  by  arguments  dravvn   from 

*  Isdem  Willielmus  (filius  Nigelli)  tenet  Heletune.  Orrne  tenuit,  &c. 

"*  So  Brydge8(Peerage,  ix.  58.)  and  others,  except  the  T.  de  N.  as  printedby  the 
Record  Commission,  which  gives  Ornifr*.  most  probably  from  a  misread  contrac- 
tion,  "  Theobaldus  Walter  tenet,  &c. — et  inde  Herveus  pat'  Hervei  Walf  dedit 
Ornifr'.  Magn'  cum  filia  sua  Aliz  in  maritag'  iiij  car'  terre  in  Rontheclive,  &c. 
p'  servic'  militare."  p.  403,  col.  2.  According  to  dates  this  Orme  would  rather 
be  the  successor  of  the  Saxon,  than  the  ejected  himself. 

•  Gregson  (Fragments,  I.  2*,  and  IL  243.)  remarks  the  resemblance  and  con- 
jectures  somc  connexion,  but  honestly  confesses  himself  unable  to  trace  it. 

'  As  may  be  seen  by  collating  these  extracts,  which  identify  the  eatate  and  tenare 
of  Fitz-Ailward  and  the  Lathoms  :

other  efitates  and  other  lineage  than  those  of  the  ejected  Saxon, 
Orme  of  Halton,  lo  which  il  refers,  namely,  by  arguments  drawn 
from  the  said  knight's  fee,  adjacent  to  Ormskirk,  in  Dalton,  Far- 
bold,  and  Wrightington,  which  is  said  to  have  descended  to 
Emma  wife  of  Fitz-Ailward,  through  her  father,  the  Baron  of 
Manchester,  from  Albert  de  Greslet,  who  obtained  the  sanie  in 
exchange  for  lands  granted  to  him  at  the  Conquest,  h  and  which 
passing  in  marriage  with  Emma  (as  by  extracts  from  the  Testa 
de  Neville  annexed)  to  Orme  Fitz-Ailward  her  husband,  de- 
scended  (according  to  the  same  evidence)  to  the  Lathoms  as  his 
heirs. »  And  it  is  most  probable  that  this  Norman  inheritance 
passed  by  marriage  of  Fitz-Ai]ward's  heiress  to  Robert  de  La- 
thom,  the  founder  of  Bui*scough,  together  with  the  representa- 
tion  in  land  and  blood  of  the  earlier  Orme,  the  subject  of  the  Ira- 
dition,  as  the  church  of  Ormskirk  (the  Saxon's  reputed  founda- 
lion)  formed  part  of  Robert  de  Lathom's  endowment,  and  the 
adjacent  Norman  fee  is  ciearly  traceable  from  Fitz-Ailward  to 
tiie  Lathoms,  Robert*s  heirs,  and  described  as  heirs  of  Fitz- 
Aiiward  also,  about  the  close  of  the  thirteenth  century. 

The  argument  is  as  follows:  Robert  de  Lalhom,  about  1180, 
founds  Burscough,  being  patron  of  Ormskirk  by  traditional  de- 
scent  from  Orme  the  Saxon,  Lord  of  Lathom  &,c.  in  that 
parish;  and  about  1307  his  representative  and  namesake  occurs 
as  hereditary  owner  of  the  fee  of  Orme  Fitz-Ailward  adjacent 
to  Ormskirk.  There  is  no  reason  to  suppose  that  these  estates 
came  from  different  sources,  and  as  dates  wiil  not  allow  Robert's 
father  to  be  son  of  Fitz-Ailward,  it  is  most  likely  that  the  estates 
in  question  came  to  him  (Robert)  by  marriage.  Both  occur  as 
hereditary  possessions  of  his  great-grandson,  and  neither  were 
acquired  by  his  grandsoiCs  marriage  with  Alfreton  ;  and  of  the 
two  persons  left  for  consideration,  dates  and  the  assumption  of 
the  local  surname  point  to  the  founder,  Robert  de  Lathom,  ra- 
ther  than  his  son  Richard,  as  the  husband  of  Fitz-Ailward's 

^  It  appears  from  Domesday  that  Albert  Greslet  and  Roger  de  Bnsli  bad  a  joint 
grant  of  Blackbumshire  ;  which  was  afterwards  partitioned,  Greslet  (ancestor  of 
the  Barons  of  Manchester)  receiving,  in  exchange  for  part  of  his  grant,  a  portioti 
of  Leyland  hundred,  andthe  manorsof  Adlington,  Duxbary,  Brindle,  Worthington, 
and  Coppul,  and  a  knighVa  fee  in  Dalton,  Wrightingtun,  and  Parbold.  Whatton

iieiress.  The  connection  thus  supported  is  indicated  by  dotted 
lines  in  the  foliowing  pedigree,  and  its  complete  proof  would  at 
once  esiahlish  this  douhle  descent  of  Norman  and  Saxon  pro- 
perty,  confirm  the  Lancashire  tradition  as  to  descent  of  blood, 
and  shew  connexion  with  the  Botelers,  whose  arms  the  Lathoms 
adopted,  appearing  to  have  adopted  them  as  arms  of  affection 
for  their  greater  kindred,  at  the  very  time  wlien  tlie  connexion 
witli  Fiiz-Ailward  took  place.  Robert  de  Lathom  cannot  be 
supposed  to  have  inherited  such  from  liis  father,  for  Engiish 
Royalty  itself  was  only  then  commencing  the  use  of  armorial 
distinctions ;  but  Burscough  Priory  testified  to  the  bearing  of  the 
son,  by  giving  his  arms  as  the  ensign  of  their  liouse,  and  the  Tar- 
bocks,  who  branched  from  Richard  Fitz-Henry  his  brother^ 
adopted  the  same  witii  another  difference,  though  apparently  at 
a  mucli  hiter  period.k 

Tliis  wili  be  more  clearly  explained  by  the  annexed  pedigree, 
conibining  the  evidence  i-elating  to  tlie  early  Lathoms  and  their 
baronial  predecessors  with  that  which  illustrates  tlie  continua- 
tion  of  descent  to  the  time  when  the  representation  of  the  direct 
line  merged  in  Stanley. 

To  the  generation  immediately  preceding  this  union  tradition 
refers  the  Stanley  Legend;  but  the  latter  part  of  the  same 
pedigree,  witli  the  documents  subjoined,  will  most  completely 
remove  from  such  rera  the  possibility  of  the  alleged  events  on 
which  the  romantic  tale  is  stated  to  be  founded. 

The  tradition  (as  given  by  Bp.  Stanley  in  his  "  Historicall

^  This  adoption  by  Tarbock  must  also  be  considered  as  arms  of  aifection  in  some 
degree,  as  they  were  not  of  the  blood  of  the  fumily  whoae  arms  their  own  elder 
line  (viz.  the  Lathoms)  adopted,  but  they  would  most  probably  takc  the  arms  used 
by  their  chief  at  the  time  of  their  separation,  ratlier  than  any  that  might  have  been 
introduced  subsequently,  which  is  an  argument  in  favour  of  the  connexion  with 
Fitz-Ailward  taking  place  in  the  generation  here  supposed.  Tarbo<:k  was  of  the 
fee  of  Knowsley,  which  the  Lathoms  did  not  acquire  until  several  descents  after, 
nnd  until  such  acquisition  the  correspondence  in  arms  could  not  be  founded  on 
tenure  by  theTarbocks  from  thcir  own  elder  Une.

ANU    FA.MILY    OF    LATHOM,    &C  5 

cent*s  MS.  Collections  in  tlie  College  of  Arnis,  de«cribes  tlie 
Lord  of  Lathom  as  issueless  and  aged  "  fowerscore "  adopting 
an  infant  "  swaddled  and  clad  in  a  mantle  of  redd,"  which  an 
eagle  brings  unhurt  to  her  nest  in  Terlestowe  wood,  and  which 
he  names  Oskell,  and  makes  heir  of  Lathom,  where  he  becomes 
the  father  of  Isabel  Slanley,  stoien  away  in  the  first  instance  by 
her  knight,  and  afterwards  forgiven  by  Sir  Oskell.  ™ 

In  Seacome^s  History  of  the  House  of  Stanley  is  given  an- 
other  version,  supplied  by  represcntatives  of  the  Lathoms  of 
Irlam  in  Lancashire  and  Hawthorne  in  Cheshire,  descended, 
according  to  their  own  tradition,  from  the  legendary  foundling; 
tlie  tradition  stating  as  follows : 

That  Sir  Tiiomas  de  Latliom,  son  of  Sir  llobert  (one  descent 
being  omitted)  in  the  reign  of  Edward  HL  had  Isabella  by  his 
Lady,  and  an  illegitimate  son  by  an  intrigue;  and  that  the  son 
was  introduced  to  his  wife's  notice,  as  found  under  a  tree  near 
the  eagle's  aery,  and  in  the  first  instance  adopted  under  the  nanie 
of  Sir  Oskatel,  but  discarded  before  the  death  of  Sir  Tiiomas, 
Irlam  and  Urmston  in  Lancashire,  and  Hawriiorne  in  Cheshire, 
being  settled  on  him  and  his  heirs,  and  the  rest  of  the  Latliom 
estate  duly  descending  to  Isabel  Lady  Stanley.  That  on  such 
adoption  Sir  Thomas  had  assumed  for  his  crest  "  an  JSagle  upon 
wing,  turning  her  head  back,  and  looking  in  a  sprightly  maimer 
as  for  something  she  had  lost,''  and  that  on  tiie  disowning,  the 
Stanleys,  "  eitlier  to  distinguish  or  aggrandise  themselves,  or  in 

Thoma»  the  second  Lord,  Anthony  Wood  says,  "  a  Cadet  of  the  Earls  of  Derby," 
and  with  lest  cauiion  praises  him  as  "  a  tolerable  poet  of  his  time."  His  best 
Fpecimen  is  the  character  of  James  Stanley,  Bishop  of  Ely  ;  but  the  work  is  a  very 
extraordinary  one.  Beatson  (i.  249.)  states  this  Thomas  Stanley  to  have  been  Bp. 
of  Man  in  1510,  afterwards  deprived,  restored  1556',  and  dead  in  1558.  The  last 
date  is  incorrect,  as  in  2  Eliz.  1559-60,  he  sued  the  corporation  of  Wigan  respect- 
ing  Courts  there,  as  "  Bishop  of  Man  and  the  Owt  Isles  and  Parson  ot  Wigan  :  " 
and  ander  the  same  designation,  in  1 1  Eliz.  sued  William  Gerrard  respecting  tithes 
of  Ince  and  Hindelay.  (Ducat.  Lanc.  vol.  ii.)  Baines  gives  his  presentation  to 
Wigan  rectory  Aug.  9,  1558. 

In  the  History  of  Birds,  by  Edward  Stenley,  Rector  of  Alderley  (now  Bishop 
of  Norwich)  Tol.  i.  119,  willbe  found  some  interesting  anecdotes  of  asportation 
of  infants  by  eagles,  illustrative  of  the  family  crest,  and  the  corresponding  story  of 
King  Alfred  and  the  Eagle's  Narsling,  "  Nestingum." 

■  The  Legend,  as  thus  told,  is  represented  by  fine  oaken  carvings  in  the  Warden'» 
8tall  at  Manchester,  put  up  by  the  before-mentioned  .Tames  Stanley,  Bishop  of 
Ely.  In  the  foreground  is  the  ancient  gate-house  of  Lathom  Hall,  which  has 
been  incorporated  wilh  the  restoration  of  that  celebrated  boilding  engraved  in

coiUempt  and  derision,  took  upon  them  the  Eagle  and  Child," 
thus  manitestinj;  the  variation  and  the  reason  of  it.  ° 

The  possibility  ofLathum  of  lrlam's  descent  from  Lady  StJin- 
l€y*s  legitimate  brother  is  noticed  subsequently;  but  stripped  of 
its  marvellous  drcss,  Seacome's  story  has  three  points:  l.  An 
opposition  of  illegitimate  male  coliaterals  to  Lady  Stanley's 
succession:  2.  the  assumption  of  the  Eagle  crest  by  ihefather 
of  the  heiress  :  and  3.  the  subsequent  adoption  of  the  Stanley 
cvest  from  niotivescf  contemptand  derision.  The  older  story  of 
the  "  Historicall  Poem,"  which  only  generaily  involves  the 
adoption  of  an  illegitimate  representative,  as  a  wondrous  found- 
ling,  under  alleged  failure  of  issue,  will  be  disproved  by  the  same 
arguments  as  the  points  here  mentioned. 

I.  In  TiiE  NOTK  subjoined»  are  given  the  results  of  a  recent 
search  into  records  at  the  Duchy  office,  which  prove  that  Sir 
Thomas  Lalhom  (the  Oskell  of  the  Historical  Poem),  son  of 
Thomas  de  Lathom  and  father  of  Isabella  Stanley,  was  succeeded 
by  a  son^  Thomas  (the  SirOskatel  of  the  tradition  of  the  Irlam 
family)  who  enjoyed  indisputably  Knowsley  and  Childwall  at 
least,  with  other  manors,  and  at  his  death,  in  1383,  left  an  infunt 
heiress  Elena,  whose  claims  were  opposed  by  virtue  of  an  alleged 
entail,  by  Isabel  wife  of  Sir  John  Stanley,  who  entered  irregu- 
larly  on  Lathom,  John  of  Ghent  Duke  of  Lancaster  (and  as 
such,  suj)erior  lord  of  Lathom)  steadily  opposing  him.  It  fur- 
ther  appears  that  the  question  was  litigated  as  late  as  1386;  when 
it  appears  to  turn  in  favour  of  Stanley,  and  he  was  in  undoubted 
possession  of  Laihom  and  Knowsley  and  their  dependencies  be- 
fore  9  Hen.  IV.  1407-8.  At  this  last  period  Stanley  wjis  the 
favourite  of  the  Lancastrian  Court,  and  Steward  of  the  House- 
hold,  and  had  served  as  Lieutenant  of  Ireland,  and  succeeded 
ihe  Percies  in  their  forfeited  Royalty  of  Man  :  but  it  is  fair  to 

"  Mr.  liaines  (Lanc.  iv.  24R.)  quotes  anothcr  modern  rersion  of  the  story 
(apparently  founded  on  a  paraphrase  of  the  Metrical  History  {Cole's  MSS.  voL 
39.)  and  erroneously  substituting  Lathom  of  Astbury,  for  Lathom  of  Irlam,) 
and  properly  opposcs  to  its  assigned  aera  the  arms  in  Astbury  yrindows,j  and 
on  Sir  Thomas  Lathom's  scal  (History  of  Cheshire,  vol.  iii.  p.  14,  20.)  aa  proofs 
of  earlier  usage  ;  but  thc  iiiscription  "  (3skcll  Lathum  "  in  other  glass  at  Northcn- 
(leu,  (ibid.  iii.  31M.)  also  mentiuucd  in  Mr.  Baines's  note,  is  not,  as  he  appears  to 
Kuppose,  in  memory  of  a  real  "  Oskell  who  bore  as  his  crest,"  &c. ;  but  merely 
explanatory  of  the  Stanley  crest  there  painted.  (Sce  postea,  p.  11.)  It  provea, 
as  (he  Metrical  ilistory  docs,  that  the  nnmc  Oskel  was  used  in  the  legend  temp. 
Hen.  VII I.  and  that  tlte  Stanley»  used  botU  figures  of  thc  crest,  but  nothiug  morc.

adtl,  that  tlie  fortune  of  llie  suit  appcars  to  Imve  turned  before 
Henry's  accession,  wben  the  infant  Elena  was  protected  by  ihe 
Duke  of  Lancaster  in  his  hei<>ht  of  power,  and  Stanley's  oppo- 
sition  was  admitted  by  that  King  and  Duke,  in  Parliament,  to 
be  "  in  ipsius  Regis  et  Ducis  gravem  contemptum,  dampnum 
non  modicum,  ac  libertatis  sue  lesionem  manifestam." 

II.  With  respect  to  the  assumplion  of  the  regardant  Eagle,  by 
the  father  of  the  heiress  (in  blood)  of  the  eldest  line  (who  in 
all  circumstances  differs  most  materially  from  ihe  person  given 
on  statements  of  the  Irlani  family  by  Seacome)  the  Astbury  win- 
dows  are  at  once  decisive,  where  an  Eagle  rising,  regardant, 
standing  on  a  Cradle,  is  given  as  the  crest  of  the  younger  sons 
of  Elena*s  great-great-grandfather,  living  beyond  the  period  to 
which  even  Seacome's  own  account  of  the  legend  relates.  In 
some  form  or  other,  that  bird  was  Uie  bearing  of  Lathom  from 
the  ver>'  earliest  usage  of  crests  by  knightly  farailies.  The  Eagle 
displayed,  charged  on  the  breast  with  the  armorial  shield,  occurs 
in  the  seal  appendant  to  the  grants  of  Sir  Thomas  Lathom  in 
the  time  of  Edward  III.;  and  tlie  Tarbocks  of  Tarbock,  who 
branched  from  Lathom  in  the  twelfth  centuiy,  bore,  as  already 
stated,  in  acknowledgment  of  common  origin,  the  same  arnis 
differenced  by  an  Eagle's  leg  erased  in  the  field,  and  (by  allow- 
ance  of  the  heralds  in  the  visitation  of  1613)  "  an  Eagle  close  " 
on  the  helmet. 

III.  And  as  to  the  time  and  causeof  variation,  Seacome's  opi- 
nion  is  admitted  to  be  formed  on  a  signet,  stated  to  be  inherited 
from  *'  Sir  Oskatel,"  and  representing  the  Lathom  crest  inac- 
curately,  as  "  on  a  wreath,  an  eagle  rising  regardantP  The 
Irlam  faraily  had  allowance  of  arms,  but  not  of  crest,  in  the 
Visitations  of  1613  and  1664,  and  therefore,  technically,  had  no 
right  to  claim  any  as  anterior  to  Ihese  ;  but  if  such  crest  was  ante' 
rior,  it  nevertheless  was  inaccurate,  as  proved  by  the  ancient  glass 
at  Astbury,  hereafter  mentioned  ;  and  the  difference,  between  the 
crest  there  given  and  the  Stanley  crest,  is  not  more  than  a  female 
Jine,  or  indeed  a  junior  branch  of  the  same  male  line  would  have 
adopted.  Several  branches  of  Lathom,  afler  the  termination  of 
the  chief  line,  did  adopt  what  is  called  "  a  preying  Eagle ; " 
as  for  instance,  the  Lathams  of  Congleton  early  in  the  sixteenth 
century,  and,  in  the  Visitation  of  1613,  the  Lathoms  of  Mos- 
borough  :  and  although  the  later  Eagle  is  verbally  blazoned 
tis  preying,  the  child  is  popuiarltf  coiisidered    as  the  nwsliug^ 


8  ON    THE    STANLEY    LEGEND 

and  not  the  prey,  P  and  "  Non  dormit  custos"  (Psalni  cxxi.  4.) 
has  occurred,  as  an  accompanying  motto.  It  may  be  difficult 
to  select  a  much  earlier  instance  of  the  Stanley  bearing  than  the 
one  given  in  the  windows  of  Northendcn  church  (Hist.  Chesh. 
iii.  318.)  in  the  memorials  for  Sir  John  Stanley  of  Elford  and 
Humphrey  Stanley,  Canon  of  Christcliurch,  where  (in  the  same 
arrangement  of  devices)  hoth  eagles  are  given,  as  matter  o( 
heraldic  indifference,  with  infants,  underwritten  Ostell  and 
Oskell  Lathum,^  and  it  would  surely  have  been  impossible  for 
the  earlier  Sir  John  Stanley  to  have  shewn  any  coutempt  for  the 
hereditary  badge  of  Elena's  father,  that  would  not  also  affect  the 
ancestors  of  his  own  Isabella.  •" 

It  is  very  likely,  as  Dugdale  supposes,  that  the  legend,  or,  as 
he  terms  it,  the  "  credible  tradition,"  may  relate  to  a  former 
ancestor,  "  in  token  whereof,  not  only  his  descendants  whilst  the 
niale  line  endured,  but  the  Stanleys  proceeding  from  the  said 
Isabel,  have  ever  since  borne  the  child  in  the  eagle's  nest,  with 
the  eagle  thereon  for  their  crest;"  but  not  thatsuch  legend  relates 
to  "  a  large  spread  oak  in  the  park  at  Lathom,"  which  may 
more  safely  be  referred  to  ancestral  Northmen,  with  its  scene 
in  the  pine-forests  of  Scandinavia.  It  is  presumed  to  have  been 
proved  (as  far  as  could  be  expected  under  the  circumstances) 
that  every  link  of  descent  in  the  Lathom  famiiy  was  legitimate 
to  Isabel  ancestress  of  Stanley,  as  well  as  to  her  brother,  tlie 
father  of  the  heiress  Eiena,  her  competitor ;  that  the  bearing, 
stated  to  have  originated  in  these  disputes,  can  be  traced  far  be- 
yond  them,  or  beyond  the  usual  period  of  crests  in  knightly  fami- 
Vies;  and  that  the  Stanley  bearing  is  its  reguhir  continuation. 

The  LocAi,  suHNAMK  of  thc  Lathoms  is  still  of  frequent 
occurrence  in  ihe  Lancashire  hundred  of  WestDerby  ;  but,  not- 

i'  So  in  the  Butaile  of  Brampton  or  Floddon,  speaking  of  King  James, 

"  He  was  prostrate 

By  tbe  helpe  of  th'  Eagle  tcith  her  swadied  chylde." 

t  In  the  original  Visitalion  of  1613  (Uarl.  MSS.  1437),  the  verbal  blazon  leaves 
the /orm  of  the  vrcst  indiflfercnt,  simply  stating  "  an  Eagle  and  Child  ;"  see  note  * 
following. 

'  The  proclamation  of  Hcnry  VIH.  at  Elthara,  in  honour  of  the  hero  of  Floddoo, 
takes  the  same  view  of  the  Stanley  badge,  as  a  long  transmitted  bearing,  "  for  that 
hU  anceHtort  bore  the  eagle  in  their  crest,  he  should  bc  proclaimcd  Lord  of  Mont- 
«ygle."  Dugdalc,  Baron.  ii.  255.  Henry  would  scarccly  apply  such  phra«e  to  the 
usuge  of  the  four  male  generation»  which  preceded  the  said  Peer.  The  bird  of  Flod- 
don,  moreover,  "with  wings  wapped  «  Ae  i«)«»Wy7ce,"  ^linc  T5"i,)  if  thc  poeticai 
Chronicler  may  be  tnuted,  was  the  rising  cagle.

withstanding  their  early  settlement  and  vvide  raniificatiun,  it 
exists  no  longer  among  the  ancient  hereditary  gentry  of  that 
county,  attiichment  to  Romanism  and  to  the  Stuarts  having  sub- 
verted  most  of  the  coUaterals. 

The  earliest  olf-shoot,  Torbock  of  Torbock  in  Knowsley 
iordship,  entered  in  the  Visitations  of  1532  and  1567,  is  con- 
tinued  a  generation  further  in  Harl.  MSS.  1549,  and  occurs  in 
the  Lanc.  Inq.  p.  m.  in  1640,  and  was  intimately  re-connected 
with  the  parent  stock  by  several  intermarriages.  * 

The  Lathoms  of  Mosborough  (grantees  thereof  20  Edw.  l.) 
entered  fourteen  descents  in  the  Visitation  of  1613.  They  are 
alluded  to  as  Catholics  in  Tracts  about  1645,  but  have  not 
occurred  subsequently ;  but  from  them,  or  from  Parbold,  several 
branches  connected  with  Ormskirk  are  supposed  to  be  de- 
rived. ' 

Lathom  of  Astbury  (Cheshire)  descending  from  Philip 
younger  son  of  Sir  Robert  de  Lathom,"  is  clearly  identified  by 
the  ancient  painted  glass  formerly  in  that  church,  nearly  of  the 
time  of  Edw.  IIL  *  Several  sons,  ancestors  of  collateral  lines, 
occur  therein,  and  in  the  MSS.  of  Sir  P.  Leycester  at  Tabley. 
Of  these,  Robert  Lathom  (living  1  Rich.  III.)  was  fathcr  of

Nicholas  Lathom,  one  of  the  collaterals  of  this  branch,  is  be- 
lieved  to  have  been  lineal  male  ancestor  of  Alexander  Lathom 
of  Congleton  in  Astbury,^'  temp.  Hen.  VIH.  and  surviving  1571 
and  1578.  No  direct  evidence  is  attainabie  on  this  point;  but 
the  descent  of  the  latter  from  Astbury  has  been  supported  by 
uniform  family  tradition ;  the  Latliam  cognizance  appears  on 
his  seal,  appendant  to  exlsting  deeds;  tiie  Newtons  (coheire  of 
the  elder  line)  occur  in  fines  connected  therewith;  and  the  early 
collaterals  of  his  family  bore  the  family  names  of  the  older 
branch.  From  this  Alexander,  lands  in  Astbury  parish  de-

of  Bradwall  Hall  in  Sandbach,  in  whose  wife  (as  eldest  co-

AND    FAMILY    OF    LATHOM,   &C.  l^ 

Heii.  VIII.  and  the  descent  of  Thomas  Lathom  (apparently  his 
son)  is  continued  in  Uugdale*s  Visitation  to  1661.  This  branch 
was  also  of  Allerton  near  Liverpooi  (the  seat  of  the  Hard- 
mans,  and  of  Roscoe  the  historian)  which  was  sequestrated, 
during  the  Protectorate,  in  the  life  of  Richard  Lathom  of  Far- 
bold,  uterine  brother  of  Sir  Thomas  Tildesley,  the  ceiebrated 
friend  and  fellow-soldier  of  the  royalist  E^rl  of  Derby.  Baines 
mentions  that  possession  of  Allerton  was  disputed  by  the  Par- 
bold  family  after  the  Restoration,  and  refers  to  it  Peter 
Lathom,  who  devised  considerabie  sums  to  local  charities  about 
1720. 

The  luLA.M  Hne  (according  to  Seacome)  descended  from  (a 
non-existent  personage)  Sir  Oskatel,  stated  to  be  the  iliegitimate 
brother  of  Lady  Stanley,  and,  when  disowned,  to  have  received 
the  *'  mannors  of  Earlom  and  Urmston"  near  Manciiester,  and 
Hawthorne  in  Cheshire.  (Edmund)  Lathum  of  Irlam,  temp. 
Car.  I.,  is  said  to  have  joined  the  royalists,  and  suffered  over- 
whelming  persecutions,  leaving  one  son,  last  heir  male,  whose 
eslate,  recovered  during  his  minority,  was  finally  ruined  at  tlie 
Revolution.  In  confirniation  of  the  alleged  descent,  Seacome*s 
informant,  Captain  Finney  of  Fulshaw,  quotes  the  kindness  of 
Earl  Charles  to  Edmund's  son  when  a  boy,  and  his  uniform 
practice  of  calling  him  "  the  top  of  his  kin,"  the  latter  being 
probably  mere  good-humoured  ievity,  and  the  former  originating 
in  pity  for  the  son  of  his  father's  friend. 

Captain  Finney's  authority  was  Mary  Lathum,  sister  of  the 
last  heir  male,  born  about  1645,  and  to  a  certain  degree  corope- 
tent  to  speak  from  contemporary  recoUeclion,  but  certainly  not 
so  as  to  facts  alleged  to  have  occurred  in  the  fourteenth  cen- 
tury,  and  olherwise  unsupported.  From  the  prominent  situa- 
tion  which  this  branch  occupies  in  Seacome,  the  pedigree  is 
brought  down  through  the  Visitations  from  its  commencement, 
and  continued  to  his  time.«l  The  arins  allowed  in  1613  were 
Liithom,  with  besanta  in  chief,  as  difference ;  but  in  1664  Dug-

(lale  allowed  the  plates  in  chief,  with  u  bendlet  Gules  for  difier- 
ence;  and  the  female  descendants,  down  to  1819,econtinued  this 
beiidlet  over  all,  which  was  also  sometimes  used  by  Mosborough, 
as  well  as  Astbury.  Irlam  (in  partial  conformity  with  the  family 
tradition)  rnay  descend  in  the  female  line  from  the  heiress  Elena, 
but  was  in  all  likelihood  a  branch  from  Mosborough  or  Par- 
bold ;  which  last  pedigree  is  defective  at  the  tirae  when  the  Irlam 
pedigree  commences. 


NoTE  A.  See  p.  2. 

As  to  alleged  raale  descent   of  Ashton  of  Ashton-undcr-Line  from 
Orme  Fitz-Ailwabd. 

The  old  Lancashlre  genealogists  have  stated  thls  Orme  to  be  male 
anccstor  of  the  Ashtotis  of  Ashton-under-Line  :  Collins  (Baronetage, 
1720,  vol.  ii.  207.)  making  hira  grandfather  of  Sir  Thomas  Ashton, 
wardcn  of  the  Cinque-ports  in  1381,  vvhich  is  manifestly  impossible,  as 
Robert  Grcslci,  to  whom  Orrac  was  uncle  by  raarriage,  was  aged  ouly 
eleven  years  in  IISG,  and  Orme  himself  appears  to  have  been  boru 
about  1 130,  by  calculation  of  descents. 

Other  pcdigrees  vary  the  head  of  this  genealogy,  and  Baines  (Lanc. 
ii.  532.)  has  introduced  some  new  members  of  it,  namely,  "  Roger  de 
Wrightington,"  ahas  de  Ashton,  alias  Fitz  Orm,  from  Kuerden's  MSS. 
and  ''  Thoraas  de  Ashton,  with  Orm  his  father,"  from  a  deed  stated  to 
be  existing  in  1617  j  butfrom  these  no  descent  is  attempted  lo  be  proved, 
(although  thc  priuted  line  of  dcsceut  froni  thera  is  given  as  establishcd); 
aud  if  the  Ashtons  really  descended  froui  Orme  Fitz-Aihvard,  it  seems 
impossible  that  it  can  be  otherwise  than  thiough  a  female,  coheiress 
with  the  ancestress  of  Lathom. 

But,  is  the  great  lordship  of  Ashton  identical  with  thc  humblc  caru- 
cate  of  "  Eston,"  given  as  part  of  Emnia  de  Greslei's  inheritance  in 
marriagc  with  the  said  Orme,  and  held  immediately  frora  Manchestcr 
Barony  by  render  of  xs.  ? 

An  original  deed  is  given  by  Eaines,  ii.  536.  from  which  it  appears 
that  Ashton  manor  was  held  iraraediatcly  from  Manchcster  by  Sir  John 

*  Letter  from  P.  Davenport  Finney,  Esq.  1819.  In  the  Visitationa  of  1613  and 
1G64  no  crest  accompanies  the  arms  allowed  to  tlie  Irlam  branch.  In  the  original 
Visitation  Book  Dugdale  writes  "  Qu.  Crest  /"  butin  thc  office  copy  (his  own  auto- 
graph)  gives  none.  Informntion  of  C.  G.  Young,  Esq.  York  Herald.  This  is  more 
particularly  murked,  as  Scucome'8  argument  turns  mainly  on  the  fgure  of  the 
Irlam  crest.     See  p.  7. 


ASHTON,    OF    ASHTON-UNDER-LINE.  13 

Ashton,  13  Hen.  IV.  by  the  render  of  xxij».  and  a  hawk,  or  payment 
of  \\s.  for  forester's  pnture.  This  proves  it  to  be  what,  in  Cheshire, 
wa»  called  "  a  wareland"  within  the  Chace  of  Blakeley.  Another  ex- 
tract  from  an  indcnture  of  Feb.  1413  (ibid.)  states  that  the  manor 
then  hcld  by  the  said  Sir  John,  was  held  iu  12  Edw.  I.  (1283),  imme^ 
diately  from  Manchester,  not  by  Jshtons,  but  by  the  aucestor  of  Sir 
Richard  de  Kirkby  j  and  documents  are  quoted  (ibidem)  to  show,  that 
in  5  Hen.  VI.  the  Ashtons  held  as  a  subinfeudation  under  Kirkby.  It 
does  not  appear  that  au  Ashton  really  held  that  manor,  by  any  known 
antlientic  decd,  before  a  charter  of  free  warren  9  Edw.  III. 

It  has  escaped  observation  that  there  were  two  Estones  in  Manches- 
ter  Barony,  Ashton  subtus  limam  and  Orm-Eston,  the  latter  being  only 
dinded  by  the  Mersey  from  a  third  Ashton,  whicli  had  lords  of  its 
local  name.  VVith  this  second  vili  the  Eston  of  Ihe  Testa  de  Neville  raay 
with  equal  or  greater  propriety  be  identifted,  namely,  vith  Orm-Eston, 
now  Urmston,  i/i  the  parish  of  Ftixton,  which  church  was  given  by  La- 
thom  to  Barscough  ;  which  Flixton  *'  Eston  "  follows  in  the  Testa  de 
Neville  ;  and  in  which  Unnston  (anciently  Ormeston  and  adjacent  to 
Irlam)  the  last  Lathum  of  Irlara's  representative  informed  Seacomc 
that  bis  family  held  a  manor,  derived  (according  to  family  tradition) 
from  the  elder  line.  It  is  certain  that  this  township  in  the  time  of  Edw. 
III.  gave  nameto  Adam  de  Ormestone,  and  that  Urmston's  heir  (Dugd. 
Visit.  Lanc  )  brought  a  manor  here  to  Hide  of  Denton  ;  but  this  clashes 
in  no  way  with  the  desceut  of  the  single  carucate,  or  the  possibility  of 
a  separate  or  paramount  manerial  interest. 

It  is  immaterial  to  the  discussion  which  ofthese  vills  was  "  Eston,"  and 
whether  Ashton  inherited  from  Orme  Fitz-Ailward  in  either  or  m  both 
of  them,  or  otherwise  ;  but  it  is  presumed  to  be  proved,  that  if  Ashton 
was  heir,  he  must  be  coheir,  in  the  female  liue,  and  coheir  with  Lathom. 


NoTB  B.  p.  6. 

With  respect  to  the  existing  evidences  of  the  legitimate  descent  of  the 
Lathoms  of  Lathom  during  the  entire  period  to  which  the  Legend 
has  been  referred,  and  of  the  particulars  connected  with  the  suit 
between  Sia  John  Stanley,  husband  of  Isabella  de  Lathom, 
and  JoHN  DuKE  of  Lancaster,  on  behalf  of  his  ward,  Elena  de 
Lathom. 

From  an  Inq.  p.  m. '  taken  in  tbe  second  week  of  Lent,  8  Rich.  IL 
(1385)  it  appears,  that  Thomas,  son  of  Robert  de  Lathom,  Knt.  died

seised  in  fee  tail  of  the  inanor  of  Knowsley  (coinprising  Roby,  Knows- 
ley,  Huyton,  and  Torbuck)  beld  of  the  Duke  of  Lancaster,  of  vvhich  a 
feoflfinent  had  been  made  to  Robert  and  Catharine  his  wife,  for  their 
lives ;  remainder  to  Thomas,  son  of  Robert.  and  heirs  of  his  body  ;  re- 
mainder  to  Joan  his  sistcr,  &c.  ;  and  also  that  a  feoffment  had  been 
made  of  the  manors  of  Childwall,  Aulesarghe,  and  one  fourth  of  Wright- 
ington,  held  of  John  Warre,  Knt.  to  said  Thonias  aud  Eleanor  his  wife, 
daughter  of  John  de  Ferrers,  Clievr,  and  tlie  heirs  of  their  bodies,  re- 
mainder  to  right  heirs  of  said  Robert. 

And  that  the  said  Thomas  died  (holding  otlier  estatcs  aud  homages 
irrelevant  to  this  subject)  Tuesday  after  feast  of  Exaltalion  (Sept.  14) 
44  Edto.  III.  1370,  and  the  Jurors  say  (viz.  in  1385)  that  Elkna, 
dau^hier  and  heiress  qf  Thomas  son  of  Thomas  de  Lathom,  Knt.  son  of 
Thomas  son  of  Robert,  Chevalier,  is  cottsin  and  next  heir  of  the  afore- 
said  Thomas  sou  of  Robert  de  Lathom,  who  is  of  the  age  of  one  year  and 
one  month. 

lu  indorseraent  of  Close  RoU  (Duchy  Records)  1377,  next  appear 
an  enrollment*  of  a  grant  frora  Thomas  de  Lathom  of  lands  in  Lathoin 
and  elsewhere  to  Robert  de  Breton,  vicar  of  Huyton,  and  Thomas  de 
Ryding,  chaplain  (granted  49  Edw.  IIL  1375),  this  Thomas  being  evi- 
dently  Sir  Thomas  de  Lathora,  who  (according  to  the  above  Inq.  p.  in.) 
entered,  in  1370,  after  his  father'»  death,  and  received  profits,  &c.  for 
twelve  years  (saving  of  Wrightington  which  he— namely,  Sir  Thomas 
last  mentioned — had  alienated  to  his  younger  brother  Edward)  and 
then  died,  viz.  in  1382. 

By  Joanna,  daughter  of  Hugh  Venables,  Baron  of  Kinderton,  Che- 
shire  (Latham  pedigree  Coll.  Arin.  and  Leycester'8  MS.  pedigree  frona 
Kinderton  deeds),  Sir  Thomas  left  a  daughter,  Isabella  de  Lathom, 
who  married  Sir  John  Stanley ;  but  by  inquisition  aforesaid  it  appears, 
that  after  the  death  of  Thomas  de  Lathom,  Chr.  came  Thomas  son  of 
the  aforesaid  Thomas  de  Lathom,  Knt.  and  enfered  on  the  premises,  as 
in  the  inquisition,  and  took  profits  for  a  year  and  a  half,  except  as  to 
Wrightington,  and  that  aftcr  the  death  of  the  aforesaid  Thomas  (in 
1384)  the  landa  were  seized  iiito  the  Duke's  hands,  by  reason  of  the 
nonage  of  Elena,  daughter  of  Thoraas  beforementioned,  Roger  de  Fa- 
zackerly  taking  the  profits  for  half  a  ycar,  and  the  Duke  subsequently, 
viz.  up  to  Lent  1385. 

In  confirmation,  it  apiwars  from  the  calendars  of  Duchy  Close  Rolls, 
that  in  1382  a  writ*  to  tiic  eschaetor  issued  on  the  death  of  Isabels

death  of  Thomas  Lathom,  for  setting*  out  dower  in  Latbum  for  the 
widow  Isabella  Lathom,  and  for  proceeding*  in  an  assize  of  novel- 
disseizin  as  to  Knowselegh,  Cbildwall,  Roby,  and  Aulasargh,  on  behalf 
of  said  Roger  de  Fazackerley,  foUowed  by  a  mandamus*  to  the  cschaetor 
on  behalf  of  the  Duke  (guardian  of  Elena),  and  lastly,  a  precept*  to 
sheriff  to  give  seisin  of  tenements  in  Latbum  to  Isabella,  tbe  widow. 
Tbe  course  of  which  is  accordant  to  the  tenor  of  the  inquisition  8 
Rich.  II. 

In  tbis  last  year  (1385)  the  opposition  of  the  daughter  Isabella  ap- 
pears  to  have  commenced,  as  tbe  Duke  of  Lancaster  (Parl.  RoUs,  9 
Rich.  II.)  complained  verbally  and  grievously  to  tbe  King,  Prelates,  and 
Peers  in  Parliament,  tbat  the  manor  of  Lathom,  beld  under  him  in  Than- 
age,  beiug  seized  into  his  hands  on  account  of  tbe  nonage  of  the  heir 
of  Thomas  sou  of  Sir  Tbomas  de  Latbom,  knt.,  Jobn  de  Stanley,  Knt. 
pretending  thatthe  said  manor  belonged  to  hira  after  the  deatb  of  the 
said  Thomas,  son  of  Sir  Tbomas,  in  right  of  bis  wife  Isabel,  by  pretext 
of  a»  entaily  bad  entered  into  the  same,  witbout  livery  or  suit  in  the 
Duke's  Chancery  ;  whereupon,  after  consultation  of  tbe  Judges  of  each 
Bencb,  Serjeauts  and  lawyers  (at  tbe  Duke's  petitiou)  it  is  determined 
that  the  entry  was  uulawful,  and  tbat  Stanley  must  proceed  in  the  Dnke'8 
Chancery,  by  petition,  or  otherwise. 

In  tbe  same  year,  the  Calendar  of  Close  Rolls  gives  the  Duke's 
*'  mandate*  to  the  Justices  of  the  Bencb,  to  pruceed  (for  Roger  Fazac- 
kerlev)  on  novel  disseizin  as  to  the  t^nements  of  Sir  Tbomas  Lathom, 
knt.  in  Knowsley,  Cbildwall,  Roby,  and  Anblesargb,  and  on  no  account 
togive  judgment  without  tbe  Dnke's  advice. 

Sncb  judgment  does  notappear,  but  in  1386  is  the  Duke'8  writ*  for 
redisseizin  for  roessuages  and  lands  in  Latbum  on  behalf  of  Robert  de 
Barton  (grantee  of  Sir  Thomas  in  13/5)  and  in  9  Hen.  IV.  Isabella 
Stanley  was,  donbtless,  finally  settled  in  the  inheritance  of  ber  fatbers, 
as  by  a  cbarter  of  that  year,  Sir  John  Stanley,  Steward  of  the  Honse- 
hold,  bas  free  warren  in  his  manor  of  Weton,  and  by  anotber  cbarter, 
free  warren  in  all  tbe  contested  manors,  namely,  "  Lathum,  Knooalegh,

NOTICES    OF   THE   FAMILY    OF    IIODY,   &C. 

Thr  following  will  of  Sir  John  Hody  of  Pillesdon  in  Dorset- 
shire,  Knt.  Chief  Justice  of  England,  is  from  the  register  of 
the  Archbishop  of  Canterbury  at  Lambeth,  "  Chichele,  481^." 
It  was  not  known  to  the  editor  of  the  last  edition  of  Hutchins's 
History  of  Dorset;  and  will  serve  to  correct  some  errors  in,  and 
add  illustration  to,  the  pedigree  there  given  of  the  family  of 
Hody. 

Sir  John  Hody  was  appointed  to  fill  the  high  office  of  Chief 
Justice  of  the  King's  Bench  on  the  13th  of  Aprii  1440,  in  the 
18th  year  of  King  Henry  VI. »  The  appointment  of  his  suc- 
cessor  Sir  John  Fortescue,  celebrated  as  the  author  of  the  trea- 
tise  "De  laudibus  legum  Angliae,"  is  dated  on  the  25th  of  Jan. 
1442-3.»^  Both  these  learned  persons  are  enumerated  by  Sir 
Edward  Coke  amongst  the  "  famous  and  expert  sages  of  the 
law,"  from  whom  Littieton  had  "  great  furtherance  in  compos- 
injz  his  Institutes  of  the  Laws  of  England."  The  name  of  Sir 
John  Hody  does  not  appear  in  Dugdale's  "  Chronica  Series  " 
prior  to  his  elevation  to  the  Bench :  he  had  previously,  how- 
ever,  been  called  to  the  degree  of  King's  Serjeant  at  Law ;  and 
imder  that  designation  both  he  and  Fortescue  are  found  as  ar- 
bitrators  awarding  in  a  dispute  between  John  Plunger,  Perpe- 
tual  Vicar  of  the  parish  of  "  St.  Dunstan's  West  in  Fleele- 
strete  in  the  suburbs  of  London,"  and  John  Mayor  and  John 
Holdernesse,  keepers  of  tlie  works  and  oniaments  of  the  said 
church,  on  the  one  hand,  and  William  Pepyr  and  Jolni  Whit- 
tokesmede  on  the  other ;  respecting  the  foundntion  of  a  perpe- 
tual  chantry  at  the  altar  of  St.  Catharine  in  the  said  cliurch, 
pursuant  to  the  will  of  Thomas  Duyk,  Jate  citizen  ofLondon. 
This  award  is  dated  on  tlie  8th  July  1439,  17  Hen.  VL  i' 

The  family  of  Hody  was  of  considerable  antiquity  in  the 
county  of  Devon.     According  to  the  Testa  de  Nevill,  Jordan 

•  Dugdalc'8  Chrooica  Seric».  •»  Chart.  44.  F.  46.  Brit.  Mm. 


NOTICES    OF   THE    FAMILY    OF    HODY.  23 

de  Hode  held  the  third  part  of  a  knight's  fee  in  Hode,  and  half 
a  fee  in  Walleworth  in  that  county,  of  Nicholas  Fitz-Martin. 
Richard  Hody  was  King*s  Escheator  of  Devonshire,  31  Edw. 
IH.  «^  and  died  about  32  Edw.  HI.  seised  of  West  Raddon  and 
Mershewode  manors  in  that  county,  and  leaving  Thomas  Hody 
his  son  and  heir,  then  fifteen  years  of  age.  ^  The  pedigree  of 
the  family,  taken  at  the  visitation  of  Somerset  in  1623,  com- 
mences  with  John  Hody  of  Stawel  in  that  county,  who  is  said 
to  have  been  father  of  the  Chief  Justice.  e  This,  however,  is 
an  error,  as  appears  from  the  foUowing  will,  where  the  name  of 
Sir  John's  father  is  shown  to  have  been  Thomas,  while  his  unde 
is  raentioned  by  the  name  of  John.

We  learn  from  this  will,  that  besides  John,  William,  and 
Margaret,  who  are  the  only  children  of  Sir  John  Hody  named 
in  the  pedigrees  in  the  Visitation  books,  he  had  two  other  sons, 
Thomas  and  Alexander,  and  a  daughter  Johanna,  then  married 
to  Nicholas  Latimer,  s  besides  other  daughters  then  unmarried. 
The  names  of  these  latter  daughters  are  not  mentioned;  but  from  a 
pedigree  of  the  family  of  Bond,  of  Grange,  in  Dorsetshire,  in  the 
College  of  Arms,  ^  it  appears  that  Mary,  one  of  the  daughters 
of  Chief  Justice  Hody,  was  married  in  1453  to  Robert  Bond  of 
Hache  Beauchamp  in  the  county  of  Somerset,  and  Lutton  in 
the  county  of  Dorset.  The  other  daughter,  Margaret,  is  stated 
in  the  Visitation  book  to  have  married  Thomas  Baynham  of 
Deans  in  the  county  of  Gloucester. 

Of  the  sons  of  Sir  John  Hody,  it  is  probable  that  Thomas  and 
Alexander  died  young  in  their  mother's  life  time.  John  the 
eldest  was  seated  at  Stowel  in  the  county  of  Somerset,  and  at 
Nitheway  in  the  parish  of  Brixham  in  Devonshire,  and  his  pos- 
terity  long  continued  there.  William  the  second  son  was 
knighted,  and  became  Chief  Baron  of  the  Exchequer,  22  Oct. 
1487,  2  Hen.  VII. »  and  was  ancestor  of  a  line  which  flourished 
for  many  generations  at  Pillesdon.     Prince,  in  his  "  Worthies 

«  This,  according  to  the  pedigree  of  the  family  given  by  Hutchins,  was  Sir 
Nicholas  Latymer  of  Duntish,  co.  Dorset,  Knt.  Sheriff  of  Dorset  and  Somerset,  22 
Hen.  VL  and  11  Edw.  IV.  He  afterwards  married  a  second  wife  Margaret,  who 
is  named  in  his  will,  dated  8  Feb.  1504,  proved  17  April  1505,  and  registered  in 
the  Prerogative  Office.

26  NOTICES   OF   THE    FAMILY    OF    HODY, 

of  Devon,"  relatesa  tradition  of  Sir  John  Hody  having  tried  and 
pronounced  sentence  of  death  at  the  public  assizes,  on  his  own 
son  Thomas,  who  was  found  guilty  of  a  capital  crime.  Tliis 
story  is  amply  refuted  by  the  editor  of  Hutchins,  who,  however, 
erroneously  supposed  that  the  Chief  Justice  had  no  son  of  that 
uame. 

Sir  Alexander  Hody,  brother  of  Sir  John,  was  attainted  on 
ihe  accession  of  the  house  of  York  for  his  adherence  to  the  oppo- 
site  party ;  and  his  lands,  having  been  forfeited  on  that  account, 
were  afterwards  restored  to  his  nephew  Sir  William.  ^  By  an 
inquisition  taken  at  Yeovil  on  tlie  26  Oct.  1  Edw.  IV.  it  was 
found  that  he  held  at  his  death,  in  right  of  Margaret  his  wife, 
"who  survived  him,  the  manors  of  Westbourn,  Everley,  Weme- 
don,  Tokeswill,  &c.  besides  other  lands  and  hereditaments  in  the 
county  of  Somerset,  and  that  having  been  also  seised  of  the 
manor  and  advowson  of  Oterhampton,  the  manors  of  Newnam 
and  Godelney,  as  well  as  of  lands  in  Bowre  de  la  Mere,  Wol- 
lavyngton,  Stoke  Courcey,  and  elsewhere  in  the  same  county,  he 
had  conveyed  the  latter  by  deed  dated  5  July,  38  Hen.  VI.  to 
certain  feoffees  upon  trust,  after  his  decease,  to  enfeoff  Margaret 
his  wife  therein  for  her  life,  remainder  to  W^illiam  Hody  senior 
in  tail,  remainder  to  William  brother  of  the  said  William  in 
tail,  remainder  to  his  own  right  heirs.  l  It  appears  also  by  an- 
other  inquisition  taken  at  the  same  time,  that  he  held  the  manor 
of  Kington  Magna  with  rent  in  Kington  Parva,  &c.  in  the 
county  of  Dorset,  which  he  settled  in  the  same  way.  He  died 
16  May  1461,  and  John,  son  of  Sir  John  Hody,  Knt.  brother  of 
the  said  Alexander,  was  his  kinsman  and  heir,  and  of  the  age  of 
26  years  and  upwards. 

EHzabeth,  the  wife  of  Sir  John  Hody,  was  the  daughter  and 
eventually  heir  of  John  Jewe  of  Whitefield,  in  the  parish  of 
Wiveliscomb,  in  the  county  of  Somerset,  and  not  of  Whitfield 
in  the  county  of  Devon,  as  erroneously  stated  in  tlie  Visitation 
books,  and  all  other  pedigrees  of  the  family  of  Hody.  She 
brought  with  her  in  marriage  the  manors  of  Pillesdon,  Putton, 
and  Chickerel,  in  the  county  of  Dorset,  and  those  of  East  and 
West  Whitfiekl,  besides  other  iands  in  Somersetshire.  After 
the  death  of  her  first  husband,  she  becaiue  tlie  wife  of  Kobert

Cappes,  Esq.  who  was  Sheriff  of  Dorset  and  Soraerset  24  Hen. 
VI.  and  by  whom  she  had  a  son  James. 

By  an  inquisition  taken  after  her  death  at  Bridport,  co.  Dor- 
set,  on  the  30tli  Nov.  13  Edw.  IV.  it  appears  that  she  was  seised 
in  fee  of  the  manors  of  Piilesdon,  Putton,  and  Chickerell,  be- 
sides  lands  in  Atram,  and  a  messuage  in  Dorchester,  in  the 
county  of  Dorset,  and  that  having  obtained  a  release  thereof 
from  John  Hody  her  eldest  son,  by  deed  dated  22  April,  8  Edw. 
IV.  she  settled  the  manor  of  Pillesdon,  in  conjunction  with  Ro- 
bert  Cappes  her  husband,  by  a  fine  levied  at  Westminster,  in 
three  weeks  from  Michaelmas  in  the  same  year,  upon  herself 
and  her  husband  for  life,  remainder  to  William  Hody  her  son, 
in  taiJ,  remainder  to  her  own  right  heirs.  And  by  another 
inquisition  taken  at  Crokeherne,  co.  Somerset,  31  Oct.  13  Edw. 
I V.  she  was  found  to  have  held  the  manors  of  East  and  West 
W^hitfield,  with  lands  in  Fyfehed,  Mertok,  Chiew,  Kynges- 
bury  Episcopi,  Compton  Pauncefote,  and  Chilteme  Dummer, 
in  fee,  and  a  similar  release  thereof  having  been  made  to  her 
by  her  son  John,  and  bearing  the  same  date  as  the  above, 
she  limited  the  manors  of  East  and  West  Whitfield,  with  the 
lands  in  Pyfehed,  by  a  fine  levied  at  Westminster  at  the  same 
time  as  the  foregoing,  to  herself  and  her  husband  for  their 
Jives,  remainder  to  James  Cappys  their  son  in  tail,  remainder  to 
her  son  William  Hody,  remainder  to  her  own  right  lieirs.  It 
appears  further  that  William  Carent,  Esq.  having  been  seised 
of  the  manor  of  Stowell  (no  doubt  as  trustee  to  her  first  hus- 
band),  had  conveyed  the  same  to  her  for  life,  remainder  to  die 
said  John  Hody  her  son  in  fee.  This  feoffment  was  made  after 
her  second  marriage,  and  it  is  probable  therefore  that  the  manor 
of  Stowell  was  not  part  of  her  own  inheritance.  She  died  on 
the  third  of  August  13  Edw.  IV.  leaving  John  Hody,  son  of  Sir 
John  Hody,  Knt.,  her  son  and  heir,  then  of  the  age  of  30  years 
and  upwards.  ™ 

These  inquisitions  seem  to  confirm  the  account  of  Sir  William 
Pole,"  who,  speaking  of  Elizabeth  Cappes,  says,  "  This  woman 
disinherited  her  eldest  sonne,  and  conveyed  her  land  part  unto 
Sir  William  Hody,  Chief  Baron,  and  part  unto  her  issue  by 
Cappis.  Between  whose  issue,"  he  further  says,  *'  there  con- 
tinued  a  long  contention."

'28  NOTICES    OF   THE    FAMILY   OF    HODY. 

The  will  of  Robert  Caps  is  recorded  in  the  Prerogative  office, 
and  was  dated  at  Pyllesdon,  24  Aug.  1475.  He  gives  a  silver 
cup  and  other  articles  of  plate  to  William  '  Hordy,'  and  makes 
James  Caps,  his  son,  and  Radegund  wife  of  the  said  James,  his 
executors. 

The  manor  of  Pillesdon  seems  to  have  been  acquired  by  the 
family  of  Jewe,  by  inheritance  from  the  ancient  family  of  Pil- 
lesdon,  which  had  previously  possessed  it  from  a  very  early 
period.  In  the  first  of  King  John,  there  was  a  suit  between 
Peter  de  Bucwde  and  Richard  del  Estre  concerning  the  custody 
of  the  lands»  and  heir  of  Waneis  de  Pilesden.  ° 

In  Hilaiy  term,  lOth  John,  Henry  de  Catesclive  and  Felicia 
his  wife  demanded  against  the  Abbat  of  Ford,  four  hides  of  land 
in  Burgestoke  and  Catesclive,  co.  Dorset,  as  the  right  of  the  said 
Fehcia,  to  which  the  Abbat  pleads  that  he  and  his  Monks  held 
the  same  by  grant  from  Warresius  de  Pillesdon,  and  in  proof 
thereof  he  produces  the  charter  of  the  said  Warresius.  P  By 
an  assize  28  Hen.  III.  it  was  found  that  one  furlong  of  land  in 
Morbath,  co.  Dorset,  was  the  inheritance  of  Basilia,  lale  the 
wife  of  Warresius  de  Pillesdon,  who  died  on  his  journey  to 
Jerusalem,  and  that  Eudo  de  Pillesdon  was  the  son  and  heir  of 
the  said  Warresius,  and  then  under  age.  Q 

By  a  fine  levied  at  Westminster,  in  fifteen  days  from  Easter, 
6  Edw.  III.  and  afterwards  in  the  octaves  of  the  Holy  Trinity, 
in  the  same  year,  John  de  Pylesdon  and  Margery  his  wife  settled 
a  messuage,  two  acres  of  land,  twenty  acres  of  meadow,  forty 
acres  of  alderbed,  and  50«.  rent,  in  Pylesdon,  Stondelegh,  and 
Whytchurch,  co.  Dorset,  upon  themselves  for  their  lives,  re- 
mainder  to  their  sons,  John,  Thomas,  Nicholas,  William,  Ro- 
bert,  and  Stephen,  successively  in  tail,  remainder  to  John  the 
father  in  fee.  ^  Besides  these  children,  John  de  Pillesdon  had  a 
daughter  Alice,  who  married  John  le  Jeu,  son  of  William  le 
Jeu,  as  appears  by  the  following  fines :  and  as  the  manor  of 
Pillesdon  passed  from  the  family  of  Pillesdon  to  that  of  Jewe, 
not  very  long  after  this  period,  it  rnay  reasonably  be  conjec- 
tured  that  all  the  sons  of  John  de  Pillesdon  died  without  issue,

Westchikerell  and  Podyngton,  the  inheritance  of  William  Jewe, 
were  conveyed  by  the  said  William,  by  fme,  to  Alice  Malet^ 
for  her  life,  with  remainder  to  John  Jewe  and  his  heirs.  y 

In  20th  Ric.  II.  Iloger  le  Walsch  and  John  Jewe  held  the 
fourth  part  of  a  knight's  fee  in  Chickerell  and  West  Chickerell 
of  William  Montacute,  Earl  of  Sarum.  z  The  will  of  tiiis  John 
Jewe  is  found  in  the  Register  of  the  Archbishop  of  Canterbury 
at  Lambeth,  "  Chichele/'  n».  32,  f.  294^,  by  which  it  appears, 
that  besides  Elizabeth,  who  afterwards  became  the  wife  of  Sir 
John  Hody,  he  had  three  sons,  John,  William,  and  Thomas, 
and  a  daughter  Johanna.  All  these  no  doubt  died  without  issue, 
for  it  is  shown  by  the  foregoing  inquisitions  that  the  manor  of 
Pillesdon,  as  well  as  the  other  estates  of  the  family,  eventually 
centred  in  Elizabeth  Hody :  and  it  appears  by  Hutchins,  that 
she  is  described  in  the  institution  books  of  the  Bishop  of  Salis- 
bury  in  1438,  as  "  Elizabeth,  wife  of  John  Hody,  daughter  and 
heir  of  John  Jewe  deceased."

SEPULCHRAL    INSCRIPTIONS    AT   THE    SCOTCH    COLLEGE,    PARIS. 

To  the  greater  part  of  the  visitors  of  this  gay  and  busy  capital  the 
remote  quarter  of  the  University,  the  old  university  of  Paris,  is  as  little 
known  as  the  steppes  of  Russia  ;  the  dirtiness  of  the  district,  the  vvide 
ruin  with  which  the  hand  of  popular  violence  and  revolutionary  madncss 
has  passed  over  all  the  ancient  institutions  of  an  academical  nature  con- 
nected  with  the  metropolis,  and  the  comparativcly  limited  number  of 
archaeological  travellers  who  are  the  only  persons  likcly  to  look  after  the 
skeletons  of  colleges  and  halls, — all  this  tends  to  the  increase  of  that 
forgetfulness  with  which  these  remains  of  the  academic  splendour  of 
one  of  the  greatest  universities  of  Europe  are  now  unjustly  treated. 

The  Scotch  College  (Le  College  des  Escossais,  as  the  old 
inscription  in  gold  letters  on  a  black  marble  slab  over  the  door- 
way,  still  terms  it,)  the  second  of  the  British  Catholic  foundations  in 
the  French  metropolis,  was  originally  founded  by  David  Bisliop  of 
Moray  iu  Scotland  in  1385,  and  was  first  situated  in  a  building  in  the 
Rue  des  Amandiers,  some  traces  of  which  may  still  be  made  out.  It  was 
one  of  the  smallest  foundations  of  the  university,  and  had  not  prospered 
like  some  of  its  contemporaries ;  for  in  1603  it  was  so  far  fallen  into 
decay  as  to  need  a  complete  regeneration  and  refoundation  from  the 
munificent  hand  of  Archbishop,  afterwards  Cardinal,  Beatoun  of  Glas- 
gow.  In  1605  the  college  was  transferred  to  its  present  site  in  the  Rue 
des  Fossds  St.  Victor,  and  here  it  was  destined  to  remain  and  to  under- 
go  a  second  dissolution  during  the  troubled  timcs  of  the  great  Revolu- 
tion.  The  private  history  of  this,  as  well  as  of  the  other  British  foun- 
dations  of  Paris,  is  but  little,  if  at  all,  known  :  whatever  is  to  be  found 
upon  the  subject  is  at  present  under  course  of  compilation,  and  will 
some  day  or  other  be  made  public.  It  will  be  sufficient  to  say,  that 
partly  from  thc  loss  of  some  of  the  estates  belonging  to  this  foundation, 
and  partly  from  the  small  dcmand  for  Catholic  priests  in  Scotland,  the 
college  for  the  present  remaius  in  abeyance  j  the  funds  being  allowed 
to  accumulate,  and  being  carefully  administered  by  a  Curator  appointed 
by  government.  At  a  future  timc  the  College  may  rise  from  its  long 
sleep,  and  again  become  a  flourishing  house  of  education :  but  at  present 
the  buildings,  which  arc  in  pcrfectly  good  condition,  are  let  out  on  lease 
to  a  private  school,  and  the  name  alone  rcuiains  to  its  walls. 


SCOTCH  COLLEGE  AT  PARIS.  33 

The  Chapel  of  this  College  possesses  a  great  point  of  attraction  to  all 
«tudents  of  Englisb  bistory,  and  to  all  who  have  hearts  to  feel  for  the 
misfortunes  of  an  exiled  racc  of  kings.  James  the  Second  and  his  family 
bore  a  peculiar  afTection  to  all  the  Britisb  foundations  of  Paris,  as  me- 
mentos  of  the  good  land  they  bad  lost :  when  they  entered  within  their 
walls  they  stood  on  British  and  on  Catholic  ground  ;  they  were  sur- 
rounded  by  young  British  hearts  tbat  cherished  both  love  and  respect 
for  them  in  retorn  for  their  favour  and  patronage  ;  and  hence  wben  tbe 
monarch  died  he  bequeathed,  as  was  tbe  fashion  at  the  court  of  France, 
various  parts  of  his  mortal  rcmains  to  the  various  coUeges.  Where  part 
of  the  monarcb  was  interred,  it  was  ver)'  natural  that  bis  consort  and  bis 
children  sbould  wish  to  lie  also,  and  that  the  most  faitbful  and  the  most 
tenderly  attached  of  his  officers  and  followers  sbould  also  desire  to  be 
buried.  Accordingly  we  find  in  tbe  chapels  of  the  Scotch  and  Irisb  col- 
leges  many  of  the  tombs  of  the  courtiers  of  the  unfortunate  James  II. 
and  by  a  curious  circumstance  we  find  them  nearly  all  uninjured,  not- 
withstanding  that  so  many  years  of  revolutionary  vandalism  have  swept 
over  the  land. 

Tbe  King  left  his  brains  to  tbis  coUege,  and  it  used  to  be  said,  other 
parts,  but  this  is  raore  than  doubtful,  to  the  Irish  and  Euglisb  colleges. 
His  heart  was  bequeathed  to  tbe  Dames  de  S^  Marie  at  Chaillot,  and 
his  entrails  were  buried  at  St.  Germain  en  Laye,  wbere  a  handsorae 
monuraent  bas  been  erected  to  bis  memory  by  order  of  George  IV. ;  but 
the  body  itself  was  interred  in  the  monastery  of  Englisb  Benedictine 
monksthat  once  existed  iu  the  Rue  du  Faubourg  St.  Jacques  close  to  the 
Val  de  Grace.  In  tbis  latter  house,  previous  to  tbe  Revolution,  the  follow- 
ing  simple  inscription  marked  where  the  monarch's  body  lay : 

"  Cl    GIST    JaCQUES    II.    Roi    DE    LA    GbANDE    BrETAGNE." 

In  the  chapel  of  the  Scotch  CoUege  meraentos  of  the  Queen  aud  the 
daugbter,  Louisa  Maria,  of  the  detbroned  King  were  also  deposited. 

In  the  Irish  and  Englisb  coUeges  no  traces  of  any  royal  torabs  exist, 
nor  are  tbeir  cbapels  so  rich  in  raonuraeutal  reraains  as  those  of  the 
Scotch  institution. 

The  chapel  of  this  latter  bouse  is  a  small  room,  perfectly  well  suited, 
however,  to  the  original  size  of  the  fonndation  :  it  is  fitted  up  with  black- 
oak  stalls  and  altar-work,  witb  a  small  gallerj'  at  the  west  end  for  the 
Principal,  and  a  vestry  or  sacristy  behind  the  altar  at  the  east.a  It  is  of 
the  lonic  order.  On  the  side  fronting  tbe  door  of  entry  stands  the 
King's  tomb  in  grey,  biack,  and  white  marble — an  obelisk  on  a  sarco- 

»  Thc  library  of  the  college,  formerly  over  the  chapel,  wa»  given  up  in  1838  hj 
the  Frencli  Govemment  to  the  Catholic  Bishop  of  Edinborgh,  and  has  «ince  been 
removed  to  Aberdeen.

phagus,  with  drapery  forming  a  kind  of  canopy  above.''  The  obelisk  was 
surraounted  by  an  urn  of  bronze  gilt,  with  the  brains  of  the  King  con- 
tained  in  it ;  but  this  was  taken  away  at  the  tirae  of  the  Revolution. 
The  other  tombs  are  only  plain  slabs  on  the  walls  or  on  the  ground  : 
where  any  of  thera  contained  brazen  plates  of  arms  they  have  been  de- 
spoiled  ;  but  they  are  otherwise  in  good  condition.  The  tablet  com- 
memorating  the  two  founders  of  the  coUege  is  tlie  most  interesting  after 
that  of  the  King  ;  the  history  of  the  institution  being  briefly  suoimed  up 
in  their  monumental  inscription  (see  p.  4 1  ).

this  to  be  a  mistake,  and  that  the  escheat  referred  to  did  not  re- 
late  to  this  Brian  Fitz-Alan,  but  to  another  of  the  same  name 
who  died  in  that  year,  leaving  only  one  daughter,  Maud,  who  was 
eight  years  of  age  ;  and  the  Inquisition  states  the  lands  to  be  in 
Lincolnshire ;  whereas  the  lands  of  this  Brian  were  chiefly  in 
Yorkshire.  Besides,  it  is  certain  that  he  was  not  only  summoned 
to  Parliament  till  33  of  EMw.  I.  as  Dugdale  himself  asserts ;  but 
he  was  also  called  upon  in  34  Edw.  I.  amongst  the  Earls  and 
Barons  of  the  kingdom  for  an  aid  upon  occasion  of  the  King's 
eldest  son  receiving  the  honour  of  knighthood.  These  circum- 
stances  I  conceive  put  it  beyond  doubt  that  he  could  not  be  dead 
in  the  30  Edw.  I.

assert  that  he  was  called  WilHam  de  Hamilton  from  the  place 
of  his  birth.  But  I  have  never  met  with  any  thing  like  autho- 
rity  to  warrant  or  even  countenance  such  an  idea.  On  the  con- 
trary,  in  the  account  of  his  foundation  of  St.  Leonard's  Hospital

In  a  grant  of  his  mother  to  the  Abbey  of  Lira  of  40«.  to  keep

same  monks  ^^  pro  animafratris  mei  WUlielmide  Britolio."  ^ 

But  what  puts  this  matter,  as  I  conceive,  beyond  doubt  is 
this,  viz.  If  the  Wiiliam  de  Ilamilton  had  really  been  the  third 
son  of  Robert  Blanchniains,  he  or  his  son  would  have  been  the 
true  heir  to  the  Earldom  of  Leicester  after  the  death  of  Robert 
Fitz-Pamell  his  alleged  brother.

discussing.

P.  107*»,  1.  14,  note.  I  am  inclined  to  think  that  he  died  in 
the  14th  of  King  John,  not  16th,  as  the  charter  to  John  his  son, 
confirming  all  former  grants,  is  dated  in  the  former  year,  g  and 
it  is  difficult  to  imagine  that  such  a  charter  would  have  been 
made  to  the  son  in  the  Hfetime  of  his  father.

P.  109,  1.  63,  note.  It  appears  by  Glover*s  Collectanea  (al- 
ready  referred  to  in  ihe  text),  and  by  several  other  pedigrees  of 
Clavering,  as  well  as  by  all  the  pedigrees  of  Neville,  that  this 
Ralph  Neville  had  married  Eva,  or  Eufemia,  the  daughter  and 
heir  of  this  Sir  John  Clavering,  and  Dugdale  himself  asserts  it 
under  the  title  of  Neville,  though  not  here.  But  notwithstand- 
ing  all  these  authorities  I  cannot  help  thinking  that  no  such  mar- 
riage  did  really  take  place.  I  have  not  found  any  inquisition 
taken  after  the  death  of  Sir  John  de  Clavering :  but  in  that  for 
his  wife  Hawisia  a».  19  Edw.  III.  it  is  stated  that  Eva  her  daugh- 
ter  was  her  next  of  kin,  and  that  Ralph  Neville  was  heir  to  cer- 
tain  of  the  lands  virtiUe  doni.  > 

The  agreement  of  marriage  between  Sir  John  and  Hawisia 
was  in  the  6th  Edw.  I.*'  when  he  was  not  more  than  twelve  years 
of  age,  and  she  survived  him  thirteen  years ;  so  that  it  is  clear 
he  had  no  other  wife,  and  as  Eva  was  forty  years  old  at  the 
death  of  her  mother,  it  is  also  clear  that  she  must  have  been  the 
daughter  of  Hawisia  by  Sir  John  Clavering. 

Dugdale  says  she  had  sons  and  daughters  by  both  her  hus- 
bands.  The  Genealogia  Fundatoris  of  the  Priory  of  Horsham 
gives  the  lady  four  husbands, '  viz.  Ist.  Thomas  de  Audley,  ob. 
s.  p.  2ndly,  Sir  liaiph  Ufford,  Knt.  by  whom  she  had  three 
sons,  John,  Robert,  and  Edmund.  3rdly,  James  de  Audiey,  by 
whom  two  sons,  James  and  Peter,  and  two  daughters,  Anne 
and  Hawisia;  and  4thly,  Robert  Benhale,  Knt.  who  died  with- 
out  issue.  I  quote  this  because  I  think  it  deserves  some  no- 
tice,  though  I  cannot  help  suspecting  the  truth  of  it.  She  was 
forty  years  old  at  the  death  of  her  mother  a^.  19  Edw.  III.  • 
Dugdale  himself,  under  the  title  Audley,  says  that  Thomas 
Audley,  whom  he  makes  the  second  husband,  died  without  issue 
a°.  l  Edw.  II.  ;ra  now,  as  Ralph  de  Ufford  lived  till  the  20th 
Edw.  Ill.n  it  must  be  clear  that,  if  she  did  mariy  both,  Audley 
must  have  been  the  first  and  Ufford  the  second ;  but  I  think  it 
will  appear  from  what  follows  thai  she  was  never  married  to 
Ufford.  In  16  Edw.  III.  she  and  her  husband  Robert  de  Ben- 
haie  were  parties  in  a  fine  with   Ralph  Neville  and  Hawisia  de

Clavering  (her  mother)  relative  to  the  manor  of  Clavering ;  P  and 
the  inquisition  taken  after  her  death,  which  did  not  happen  till 
43  Edw.  III.,  calls  her  theii  the  wife  of  Robert  Benhale,  and 
says  she  had  been  first  married  to  Thomas  de  Audeleghe  :  q  now 
Sir  Ilalph  de  Ufford  died  a".  20  Edw.  III,  four  years  after  the 
fine.  This,  I  conceive,  puts  the  supposed  marriage  with  Ufford 
out  of  all  probabiUty.  >" 

It  docs  not  appear  that  she  had  any  issue  by  Benhale,  and  the 
inquisition  states  that  James  Lord  Audley  was  the  heir  of  her 
first  husband.  I  am  therefore  of  opinion  that  she  had  only  those 
two  husbands,  Thomas  de  Audelegh  and  Robert  de  Benhale,  and 
that  she  died  widiout  issue  by  either.

Lord  Percy,  was  created  Karl  of  Northumberland.  From  him 
(though  not  without  some  temporary  interruptions)  the  Earl- 
dom  and  Barony  or  Baronies  descended  to  Henry  Earl  of 
Northumberland,  who  died  in  1527,  leaving  three  sons,  Henry, 
Thomas,  and  Ingleram.' 

Henry  succeeded  his  father  and  died  without  issue  in  1537. 
The  style  which  he  used  was,  "  Henricus  Percy  Comes  North- 
briae  Dns  Honorum  de  Cokyrmouth  et  Petworth  Dns  de  Percy 
Lucy  Poynings  Fitz-Paine  et  Bryan,  ac  guardianus  generalis 
orientalium  et  mediarum  Marchiarum  Angliae  versus  partes 
Scotiae,  ac  inclitissimi  Ordinis  Garterii  miles,"  &c. 

Upon  his  death,  leaving  no  issue  himself,  the  descent  of  these 
titles  was  stopped  in  its  regular  course  by  the  unfortunate  cir- 
cumstance  of  the  recent  attainder  and  execution  of  his  next  bro- 
ther  Thomas ;  and  thus  they  became  extinct,  or  rather  forfeited 
to  the  Crown,  and  so  remained  for  twenty  years,  when  by  the 
favour  of  Queen  Mary  the  Earldom  of  Northumberland  and 
the  Barony  of  Percy  were  restored  to  his  nephew  Thomas,  the 
eldest  son  of  his  attainted  brother,  in  a  sort  of  qualified  way, 
viz.  by  letters  patent  dated  30  Apr.  a^.  1557,  he  was  created  a 
Baron  of  Parliament  by  the  title  of  Baron  Percy,  with  place  and 
voice  in  Parliament  (without  mention  of  the  ancient  place,)  to 
liold  to  him  and  the  heirs  male  of  his  body,  and  for  default  of 
such  issue,  and  after  his  death,  Henry  Percy  his  brother  and 
the  heirs  male  of  the  body  of  the  said  Henry  should  be  Baron  and 
Barons  Percy.  And  by  other  letters  patent  dated  the  day  fol- 
lowing,  he  was,  by  thetitle  of  Baron  Percy,  and  in  consideration 
that  his  ancestors  "  ab  antiquo  de  tempore  in  tempus  "  had  been 
Earls  of  Northumberland,  further  created  Earl  of  Northumber- 
land  to  him  and  the  heirs  male  of  his  body,  with  like  remainder 
to  his  brother  Henry  and  the  heirs  male  of  his  body,  with  an 
especial  clause  granting  the  ancient  place  of  the  Earldom  as  it 
had  been  held  by  his  ancestors. 

This  appears  to  have  been  a  perfect  restitution  of  the  Earldom 
as  to  Thomas  and  Henry,  but  not  extending  any  further  than 
to  the  heirs  male  oftheir  bodies. 

*  See  vol.  VI.  pp.  266 — 283,  for  an  account  of  the  claim  of  James  Percy,  as  de- 
scended  from  this  Ingeb-am,  to  the  Earldom  of  Northumberland  in  1670,  and  which 
he  continued  to  urge  for  maoy  years,  as  also  a  pedigree  of  the  male  descendants  of 
the  first  Earl. 


54  ADDITIONS    TO    DUGDALE's    BARONAGE. 

With  respect  to  the  Barony  it  was  no  further  a  restitution 
than  as  it  gave  the  same  title ;  for,  as  to  place,  precedence,  and 
inheritance  it  was  to  all  intents  and  purposes  a  new  Barony,  with 
place  and  precedence  only  according  lo  the  date  of  the  patent, 
and  with  a  liniitation  of  the  inheritance  to  the  heirs  male  de- 
scended  of  their  two  bodies  only. 

Thomas  thus  restored  was  for  some  time  in  favour  with  Queen 
Elizabeth,  who  made  him  a  Knight  of  the  Garter  in  1563  ;  but, 
joining  in  rebellion  with  Charles  Earl  of  Westmorland,  he  was 
degraded  of  the  Order  in  1569,  attainted  by  Parliament  in  1571, 
and  beheaded  at  York  in  1572. 

His  issue  was  only  four  daughters,  who  could  not  have  in- 
herited  his  honours  even  if  he  had  not  been  attainted,  as  they 
were  expressly  limited  to  the  heirs  male  of  his  body  with  re- 
mainder  to  his  brother  Henry  and  the  heirs  male  of  his  body. 
Henry  accordingly  succeeded  to  the  Earldom.

South  upon  the  dealh  of  his  grandfather,  and  so  her  portion  of 
the  Barony  of  Fitz-Hugh  became  involved  in  the  Barony  of 
Dacre,  and  so  remains  at  this  day.      And

56  ADDITION8    TO    DUGDALe's    BARONAGE. 

John  St.  Aubyn,  daughter  of  his  eldest  sister  Johanna  (whose 
husband's  name  is  not  known)  and  John  Cole,  Esq.  son  of  his 
other  sister  Margaret,  were  found  to  be  his  cousins  and  next 
heirs.  It  does  not  appear  how  Thomas,  the  husband  of  his 
niece,  was  related  to  him.  He  made  a  settlement  of  all  his 
estates  (except  IVegony.e  which  he  gave  in  his  lifetime  to  Ed- 
ward  Pomeray  and  Margaret  liis  wife  and  the  heirs  male  of  the 
body  of  Edward,  to  hold  of  him  and  Joan  his  wife,  and  of  his 
heirs  for  ever),  upon  himself  and  his  wife  and  the  heirs  of  their 
bodies,  with  remainder  to  his  own  right  heirs.  Sir  Thomas 
l^omeray  in  right  of  Joan  his  wife,  and  John  Cole,  Esq.  in  his 
own  right,  divided  those  estates,  assigning  dower  to  the  widow.f 
It  seems  Cole  died  shortly  after  witiiout  issue,  for,  upon  the 
death  of  the  said  Joan  wife  of  Sir  Thomas  Pomeray,  it  was 
found  that  she  died  on  8th  December,  2Hen.  VI.&  seised  of 
the  manors  of  Birie  and  Stokesley  Pomeray,  and  a  moiety  of 
the  manors  of  Brixham  and  Herburton,  and  that  Edward  Pome- 
ray,  Esq.  had  been  in  receipt  of  the  rents  and  profits  from  the 
time  of  her  death,  but  by  what  right  the  jurors  knew  not :  that 
Joan,  wife  of  Otes  Bodrugan,  and  Margaret,  wife  of  Reginald 
Trethurf,  daughters  of  Sir  John  St.  Aubyn,  her  son  by  a  former 
husband,  were  her  next  heirs. 

This  Edward  Pomeray  was  the  son  of  Thomas  Pomeray,  per- 
haps  the  Sir  Thomas  above  mentioned,  but  certainly  the  Thomas 
who  is  named  as  the  youngest  son  of  Henry,  who  died  in  41 
Edvv.  HI. ;  for,  in  the  inquisition  taken  after  his  death,  it  was 
found  that  he  held  the  manor  of  Stokesley  Pomeray  and  other 
lands  in  fee  tail,  by  gift  of  Nicholas  de  Wedesgrave  and  others 
to  Thomas  de  la  Pomeray  his  father  in  a».  3  Edw.  III.  (which  is 
the  settlement  from  whence  the  names  of  those  younger  sons 
were  taken).  He,  Edward,  married  before  10  Kic.  II.  to  Mar- 
garet  daughter  of  John  Bevill,  Esq.  '>  In  13  Hen.  VI.  he  set- 
tled  the  manor  of  Birie  Pomeray  upon  himself  and  the  said 
Margaret  his  wife,  and  the  lieirs  male  of  their  bodies,  remainder 
to  his  own  heirs  male,  remainder  to  his  right  heirs,  and  died  so 
seised  on  3rd  May,  a».  24  Hen.  VI.  Jeaving  Henry  his  son  and

died  10  Sept.  a».  Edw.  IV.  and  Henry  was  again  found  heir. 

This  Henry  was  father  of  Sir  llichard,  fathcr  of  Sir  Edward 
father  of  Sir  Thomas,^  who  all  successively  possessed  the  Barony 
of  Birie  Pomeray  till  the  latter  sold  it  to  Edward  Duke  of 
Somerset,  Lord  Protector.

There  is  but  one  writ  of  summons  in  this  case,  and  that  only 
to  the  rebel  pariiament  in  49  Hen.  HI.  It  is  not  therefore 
necessary  to  follow  the  descent  of  the  coheirs :  they  were  all, 
with  the  exception  of  Penbury,  in  the  rank  of  peerage.

of  Robert  de  Greslei  or  Grelle,  Margery  their  sister  being  a  nun 
at  Chicksand.

Conqueror.i  See  more  ofhim  under  Mandeville  at  page  203,

King  Henry  III.  to  one  Pontius  de  la  Mer,  a  merchant,  and  his 
assigns,  he  purchased  the  grant  of  Pontius ;  and  there  being 
some  debts  of  his  father  still  remaining  unpaid  to  the  King,  the 
Sheriff  of  Middlesex  distrained  for  the  debt  upon  his  lands. 
He  represented  his  situation  to  the  King,  stating  his  having 
purchased  the  grant  from  Pontius,  that  he  was  still  a  minor, 
and  should  come  of  age  in  little  more  than  a  year,  and  that  it 
was  not  the  custom  to  distrain  upon  heirs  in  ward  before  they

came  of  age ;  and  the  King  thereupon  directed  the  Sheriff'  to 
distrain  the  executors  of  the  wiil  of  the  father  as  far  as  they  had

P.  511^,  1.  67,  after  "  Dowry."  He  had  issue  also  by  the  said

married  to  Roger  Northwood  the  elder.^' 

P.  512,  1.  24,  after  "  age."  From  this  point  I  think  proper 
to  state  the  descent  in  my  own  way. 

The  inquisition  referred  to,  taken  after  his  death  in  the  33rd 
of  Edw.  III.  shews  that  William  was  his  son  and  heir  of  the  age 
of  nineteen  years.  His  daughters  are  not  mentioned  in  that 
record,  but  they  appear  in  a  subsequent  one ;  and,  as  tlieir  pos- 
terity  at  length  became  coheirs  of  this  Barony,  I  postpone  the 
account  of  their  marriage  and  issue  until  I  come  to  that  subse- 
quent  record  of  the  6th  of  Hen.  IV.  at  which  period,  by  the 
extinction  of  their  brother^s  line,  the  Barony  fell  into  abeyance 
between  the  heirs  of  their  respective  bodies. 

Besides  William,  the  eldest  son,  he  had  two  others,  Thomas 
and  John  ;  ^  of  Thomas  I  know  no  more  than  that  he  was  living 
at  the  time  of  his  father's  death,  and  dead  before  6  Ric'  II.  for 
in  that  year  his  brother  John  obtained  livery  of  the  manor  of 
Hammes  in  Sussex  (under  an  entail),  in  the  character  of  heir 
male  of  the  body  of  their  father  and  mother,  upon  the  death  of 
their  elder  brother's  son.  ^  This  John  must  also  have  been  dead 
before  the  6th  of  Henry  the  Fourth,  and  all  issue  male  and  fe- 
male  either  from  him  or  Thomas  extinct,  to  make  way  for  the 
inheritance  to  pass  to  the  heirs  of  the  sisters.  Having  thus  dis- 
posed  of  the  younger  sons,  I  resume  the  account  of 

William  the  eldest.  He  came  of  age  and  made  proof 
thereof  in  the  35th  of  Edw.  III.  and  vvas  found  to  be  heir 
to  his  mother  at  her  deaih,  wliich  happened  in  tlie  43rd.  He 
was  regularly  summoned  to  Parhament  from  the  36th  of  Edw. 
III.  till  his  death  in  the  49th. '  His  wife  was  Beatrix  sister  of

biiry,  co.  Gloucester,  with  other  lands,  came  to  Elizabeth 
Heron  lier  daughter,  and  at  that  time  sole  heir.  By  this  lady, 
who  survived  him,  he  had  issue  John  his  son  and  heir,  only  two 
years  of  age,  and  a  daughter  named  Elizabeth. 

John  the  son  died  a  minor  not  more  than  ten  years  of  age, 
and  in  ward  to  the  King,  on  the  2Tth  of  July,  in  the  6th  of 
Richard  II.,  and  his  sister  EHzabeth  was  fuund  to  be  his  heir, 
sixteen  years  old  and  upwards.™ 

What  follows  appears  to  me,  from  its  singular  curiosity,  to 
deserve  particular  notice. 

Shortly  after  the  death  of  her  brother  this  EHzabeth  became 
the  wife  of  Sir  John  de  Falvesle,  a  kniglit  of  Northamptonshire, 
who  immediately  applied  for  Hvery  in  her  right,  she  being  of 
fuli  age,  of  all  the  lands  of  her  inheritance ;  which  lands  had, 
according  to  the  feudal  system,  by  reason  of  the  death  of  her 
father  and  the  minority  of  his  heir  her  late  brother,  been  seized 
into  the  King's  hands,  and  so  remained  at  the  time  of  the  appli- 
cation.''  He  was  answered,  that  it  was  one  of  the  King's  prero- 
gatives  that  ah  women  who  held  of  the  King  in  chief,  whatever 
their  age  might  be,  were  bound  to  make  oath  that  they  would 
iiot  marry  until  they  had  obtained  his  licence ;  and  that  if  they 
did  so  marry  without  his  licence,  their  lands  and  tenements 
should  be  seized  into  the  King's  hands  until  they  made  satis- 
faction  "  ad  voluntatem  Domini  Regis,"  and,  therefore,  as  the 
said  Elizabeth  had  married  herself  to  the  said  John  after  her 
brother's  death  without  the  King's  Hcence,  they  were  bound  to 
make  satisfaction  for  such  transgression  before  they  could  obtain 
Hvery.  He  persisted  in  his  demand,  however,  and  the  matter 
was  brought  to  a  discussion  before  the  King  and  his  great 
Council,  o  "  in  pleno  Parliamento  suo  tento  apud  Westin  in 
octabis  Scti  Michaelis,  a».  regni  sui  sexto."  In  which  Parlia- 
ment  the  petition  of  the  said  John  and  Elizabeth  was  read ;  and 
after  the  Parliament  was  ended,  "  in  magno  Concilio  dicti  dni 
Regis,  assistentibus "  John  King  of  Castille,  William  Arch- 
bishop  of  Canterbury,  Robert  Bishop  of  London,  the  Chancellor, 
the  Bishops  of  Winchester,  Ely,  Durham,  Lincoln,  Norwich, 
Exeter,  Hereford,  and  Sarum ;  the  Abbat  of  Waltham  Holy 
Cross,  "  et  aliis  prelatis  ac  etiam  Comitibus  et  aliis  magnatibus 
et  proceribus  regni,"  together  with  the  Judges  and  Serjeants  at 
Law  and  many  other  learned  Counsel ;  and  the  said  article  of

prerogative  was  read  and  debated,  and  a  question  was  put  by  ihe 
said  Prelates,  Earls,  and  Peers  to  the  said  Justices,  Serjeants, 
&c.  "  Utrum  praedictus  articulus  pro  lege  haberi  et  teneri  debe- 
ret  aut  consuevit?  "  They  answer,  "  Quod  praedicta  Prerogativa 
non  tenetur  pro  Statuto,  et  quod  dictus  articulus  hactenus  non 
extitit  observatus;"  and  that  by  such  marriage  after  the  death 
of  her  brother  (whose  heir  she  was)  without  the  King's  licence 
she  had  not  committed  any  ofFence  for  which  she  was  bound  to 
make  satisfaction,  or  for  which  her  lands  ought  to  be  detained 
in  the  King's  hands.  Whereupon  it  was  ordered  that  livery 
should  be  granted  from  the  day  on  which  the  application  was 
first  made. 

As  soon  as  this  decision  had  taken  place,  a  writ  of  summons 
was  issued  to  the  very  man  who  had  thus  maintained  a  suit 
against  the  Prerogative  of  the  Crown.  It  does  not  appear  that 
he  ever  had  any  issue  by  this  Elizabeth  ;  yet  he  continued  to  be 
summoned  to  Parliament  as  long  as  he  lived,  viz.  till  16  Ric.  II. 
Upon  his  deathP  she  married  to  her  second  husband  Sir  WiUiam 
Heron,  who  was  the  very  next  year  surnmoned  to  Parhament 
and  continued  to  be  so  summoned  till  the  5th  of  Hen.  IV. 
although  she  had  died  in  the  23rd  of  Ric.  II.  and  it  does  not 
any  where  appear  that  he,  any  more  than  Falwesle,  ever  had 
any  issue  by  her.  I  am  not  aware  that  either  of  her  husbands 
is  described  in  any  of  the  writs  of  summons  as  Lord  Say,  and 
therefore  some  doubt  may  possibly  arise  upon  that  ground  as  to 
their  having  derived  that  honour  through  her.  But  this  doubt 
must  be  removed  by  what  foUows :  I  have  seen  a  deed  of  her 
first  husband's  which  clears  up  that  point  with  respect  to  him. 
It  begins  thus  :  "  Sciant,  &.c.  quod  Ego  Johes  Falwesle  chivaler 
et  Dominus  de  Say  dedi,  &c.  Johi  Waltham  Custodi  privati 
sigilii,  &c.  manerium  meum  de  Falwesle,  &c.  Dat.  apud  Lon-

&c.  Her  second  husband  Heron  was  Steward  of  the  King's 
Household  q9.  4  Hen.  IV.  by  the  title  of  Lord  Say.  A  circum- 
stance  which  still  further  confirms  the  supposition  that  the  two 
husbands  of  this  EHzabeth  owed  their  respective  summonses  to 
Parliament  to  their  marriage  with  her  is,  that  neither  of  them 
ever  had  summons  previous  to  such  marriage.

ADDITIONS    TO    DUGDALE's    BARONAGE.  61 

The  story  of  this  lady  fumishes  more  matter  towards  explain- 
ing  the  notions  which  prevailed  about  ihe  latter  end  of  the  14th 
and  the  beginning  of  the  15th  centuries  than  any  other  that  I 
recollect  to  have  inet  with,  and  therefore  I  have  dwelt  upon  it 
with  particular  attention. 

Her  father  was  the  heir  of  a  long  line  of  ancestors  who  had 
been  summoned  to  Parliament  by  writ  with  as  much  regularity 
as  can  be  shewn  in  most  ancient  Baronies,  and  so  may  be  con- 
sidered  as  the  heir  of  and  as  possessing  a  Barony  by  writ,  but 
the  lands  he  inherited  were  some  of  them  held  "  per  Baroniam,** 
others  "  sicut  Baro,"  so  that  he  may  also  be  said  to  have  been 
heir  of  a  Barony  by  Tenure,  and  upon  that  ground  perhaps  a 
question  may  fairly  arise,  whether  the  circumstances  that  at- 
tended  his  dau2:hter's  inheritance  are  to  be  attributed  to  the 
Barony  by  Writ  or  the  Barony  by  Tenure,  or  to  the  compound 
of  both.  It  iscertain  that  her  first  husband  Falvesle  was  sum- 
n)oned  to  the  very  first  Parliament  after  the  legality  of  his  mar- 
riage  had  been  allowed.  It  is  also  certain  that  he  had  not  been 
admitted  to  the  enjoyment  of  her  lands  till  after  a  successful 
contest  maintained  against  an  aileged  prerogative  of  the  Crown ; 
and  it  seems  reasonable  to  suppose  that  the  immediate  calling 
him  to  Parliament  was  not  a  matter  of  spontaneous  favour,  but 
that  as  her  husband  he  had  a  right  to  a  writ.  He  died  and  she 
married  again,  and  her  second  husband  Sir  William  Heron 
was  also  immediately  summoned,  and  continued  to  be  summoned 
as  long  as  she  lived.  So  far  all  this  may  be  applicable  to  a  mere 
Barony  by  writ:  but  this  second  husband  continued  to  be  sum- 
moned  after  her  death,  and  is  called  Lord  Say  ;  and  it  turns  out 
upon  investigation  that  the  principal  lands  of  her  inheritance 
had  been  settled  by  fine  upon  her  said  second  husband  and  her 
for  their  respective  lives,  with  remainder  to  the  heire  of  their 
two  bodies,  remainder  to  her  right  heirs,  and  so  he  became  te- 
nant  for  life  after  her  death.  Here  are  two  circumstances  com- 
bined,  his  enjoyment  of  her  lands  and  his  sitting  in  Parliament 
after  her  death ;  and  1  must  own  that  they  appear  to  me  to 
connect  so  closely  as  that  I  cannot  help  suspecting  that  if  the 
lands  had  not  been  so  settled,  but  had  remained  as  her  paternal 
inheritance,  they  would  have  passed  away  upon  her  death

She  diedon  the  8th  of  July  a°.  23  Ilic.  II.  yet  no  inquisition 
appears  to  have  been  taken ;  but  her  inheritance  remained  quietly 
in  the  possession  of  her  surviving  husband  until  his  death  in  the 
6th  of  Hen.  IV.  and  then  the  jury  return, 
William  de  Clynton,  chev'". 
Mary,  wife  of  Otho  de  Worthington, 
Maud,  sister  of  the  said  Mary,  and 
Roger  de  Fienles, 
to  be  her  cousins  and  next  heirs  in  the  following  manner,  viz. 

The  said  William  de  Clinton,  Chevr.  as  son  of  Sir  William 
de  Clinton,  Knt.  son  of  Sir  John  de  Clynton,  Knt.  by  Idonea 
his  wife,  eldest  daughter  of  GefFrey  de  Say  and  aunt  of  the  said 
EHzabeth  Heron. 

The  said  Mary  Worthington  and  Maud  her  sister  as  daugh- 
ters  of  Sir  Thomas  de  Aldon,  Knt.  by  Elizabeth  his  wife,  second 
daughter  of  the  said  GefFrey  and  aunt  of  the  said  Elizabeth 
Heron. 

The  said  Roger  de  Fienles,  as  son  of  Sir  William  de  Fienles, 
Knt.  son  of  another  Sir  William  by  Joan  his  wife,  third  daugh- 
ter  of  said  Geffrey  and  aunt  of  the  said  Elizabeth. 

So  the  Barony  fell  into  abeyance  amongst  these  four  coheirs. 

Afterwards  Mary  Worthington  and  her  sister  (who  was  mar- 
ried  to  fsic)  )  both  died  without  issue,  P  and  the  abeyance 
rested  between  Clinton  and  Fienles. 

William  de  Clinton  was  a  Peer  already;  he  died  in  a».  10 
Hen.  VI.  leaving  John  his  son  and  heir  22  years  old. 

Roger  de  Fienles  married  and  had  issue  Richard,  who  ob- 
tained  the  Barony  of  Dacres  of  the  South  by  marriage,  and 
transmitted  it  to  his  posterity,  where  it  remains  to  this  day. 

This  Roger  had  a  younger  brother  named  James,  who  was 
Esquire  of  the  Body  to  tlie  King,  and  afterwards  a  Knight,  and 
in  24  Hen.  VI.  advanced  to  the  office  of  Chamberlain  to  Queen 
Margaret,  with  a  salary  of  forty  pounds  per  annum,  by  lettere 
under  her  great  seal  dated  the  7th  of  June  in  that  year. 

In  the  year  following,  on  the  5tli  day  of  March,  he  was  created 
a  Baron  of  the  Kingdom  of  England,  in  presence  of  ihe  three 
estates  of  the  realm  in  Parliament  assembled  at  Bury  St.  Ed- 
mond's,  and  with  the  assent  of  the  Lords  Spiritual  and  Tem- 
poral,  by  the  title  of  Baron  of  Say  and  of  Sele,  and  his  writ  of

transaction  appean»  upon  the  Rolls  of  Parliament,  but  the  whole 
is  recited  at  large  and  exemplified  by  a  patent  under  the  great 
seal  dated  the  same  day ;  and  it  is  remarkable  that  there  are  no 
words  in  the  patent,  any  more  than  in  the  writ,  that  can  be  con- 
strued  as  giving  or  conveying   a  state  of  inheritance  i  in  the

dignity.  He  was  summoned  by  the  same  title  to  the  foUowing 
Parliaments  of  27  and  28  Hen.  VI. ;  in  which  latter  year,  on  the 
4th  of  July,  he  was  unfortunately  taken  by  the  rebels  under 
Cade,  and  by  them  beheaded. 

It  has  been  aheady  noticed  that  there  was  no  estate  of  inhe- 
ritance  in  the  title  of  Say  and  Sele  granted  by  the  letters  patent. 
After  the  death  of  the  person  who  had  been  so  created,  I  find 
his  son  and  heir  Wilham  summoned  to  the  next  Parliament  and 
to  all  subsequent  Parliaments  during  his  Hfe,  not  by  the  title  of 
Say  and  Sele,  as  his  father  had  been,  but  by  the  title  of  Say  only, 
as  if  he  had  become  sole  heir  of  that  ancient  Barony,  notwith- 
standing  that  the  line  of  his  father's  elder  brother,  as  well  as 
that  of  Clinton,  was  still  in  existence :  and  I  think  it  will  appear, 
from  the  evidence  which  I  am  about  to  state,  that  this  William 
was  at  that  time  considered  to  be  legally  possessed  of  that  dig- 
nity.  I  therefore  deemed  it  proper  to  proceed  in  the  manner 
I  have  done  in  order  to  bring  that  evidence  forward. 

A  short  time  before  the  death  of  Sir  James  Fenys  (Fienles), 
who  had  been,  as  above  mentioned,  created  Lord  Say  and  Sele, 
an  agreement  appears  to  have  been  entered  into  between  him 
and  his  cousin  John  Lord  Clinton  for  the  purpose  of  putting 
him  in  possession  of  the  ancient  title  of  Lord  Say  ;  for,  by  a 
deed  dated  Ist  Nov.  27  Hen.  VI.  John  Lord  Clinton  "  gives, 
grants,  ratifies,  and  confirms  to  the  said  James  Lord  Say  and 
Sele  his  cousin,  his  heirs  and  assigns  for  ever,  the  name  and 
title  of  Lord  Say,  relinquishing  all  interest  therein,  as  well  as 
right  to  the  arms  thereunto  belonging,  for  himself  and  his  heirs, 
and  also  granting  that  the  said  James,  his  heirs  and  assigns, 
should  be  known  and  called  by  the  Tide  of  Lord  Say,  without 
any  other  addition,  with  a  clause  of  warranty  against  all  persons 
whatsoever."     The  2nd  of  December  foilowing  tlie  two  parties

executed  an  indenture  by  which,  after  reciting  tlie  above  men- 
tioned  deed,  Fienles  renounces  all  pretensions  to  "  all  advow- 
sons,  knight's-fees,  wardships,  marriages,  reliefs,  escheats,  renis, 
services,  and  forfeitures,  which  by  reason  of  the  said  Lordship 
[ratione  Dominii)  of  Say  had  belonged  to  Clinton  before  the 
date  of  his  release,  or  might  in  future  devolve  upon  him  or  his 
heirs." 

The  death  of  Fienes  happened  soon  after,  and  it  may  admit 
of  great  doubt  whether  the  title  of  Say  and  Sele  did  not  become 
extinct  upon  his  death.  Had  there  been  nothing  but  the  writ 
of  summons  in  proof  of  the  title,  that  writ  would  have  operated 
in  the  usual  way  and  created  an  estate  of  inheritance  to  the 
heirs  of  his  body,  but  hei-e  was  a  formal  ceremonious  crealion  in 
pleno  Parliamento,  accompanied  by  letters  patent,  in  which,  as  I 
have  said  before,  there  is  not  a  word  about  heirs  of  any  descrip- 
tion.  But,  however  that  may  be,  it  is  certain  that  when  he  died 
he  was  considered  to  be  Lord  Say.  An  inquisition  post  mortem 
in  Surrey,  another  in  Sussex,  another  in  Kent,  another  in  Mid- 
dlesex,  and  another  at  Bristol,  all  describe  him  "  Jacobus  Fenys 
miles  Dominus  de  Say,"  or  "  Jacobus  Dns  de  Say  miles."  It 
is  certain  too  that  after  his  death  none  of  his  posterity  ever  re- 
ceived  a  summons  to  Parliament  by  the  title  of  Say  and  Sele  till 
after  a  new  patent  was  obtained  from  King  James  the  First, 
and  then,  though  the  patent  recognised  and  confirmed  the  de- 
scent  from  Sir  James  to  the  grantee,  it  expressly  limited  the 
rank  to  the  date  of  this  new  creation. 

From  these  transactions  between  Clinton  and  Fienes,  and  the 
subsequent  conduct  of  the  Crown,  I  think  these  inferences  may 
be  drawn : 

That  Clinton,  as  representative  of  the  eldest  coheir,  was  con- 
sidered  as  having  the  principal  if  not  the  exclusive  claim  to 
the  dignity  of  Say. 

That  all  advowsons,  knight's-fees,  wardships,  marriages,  re- 
liefs,  escheats,  rents,  services,  and  forfeiiures,  were  considered 
as  attendant  upon  the  dignity,  or  as  it  is  called  in  the  deed  tlie 
**  Dominium  de  Say." 

That  it  was  competent  in  law  to  a  coheir  of  a  Barony,  situ- 
ated  as  Clinton  was  with  respect  to  Say,  to  convey  all  his  right 
and  interest,  not  only  to  any  other  coheir,  but  even  to  a  per-

son  who  had  no  present  interest  in  the  dignity,  provided  that 

person  were  lineally  descended  from  the   immediate  common 

ancestor  of  the  coheirs,  and  perhaps  to  any  other  person  not  so 

qualified,  for  Ciinton's  conveyance  is  not  only   to  Fienes  and 

his  heirs,  but  to  Fienes  and  his  heirs  and  asnigns.     If  Ciinton 

could  give  such  a  right  of  assignment  to  Fienes  he  must  have 

possessed  it  himself.     The  former  part  of  the  inference  has  been 

proved ;  the  latter  certainly  has  not ;  but  it  has  also  not  come 

into  question,  and  the  deed,  as  far  as  it  goes,  proves  that  Clin- 

ton  thought   himself,    and  was  considered  to  be,  possessed    oi 

such  a  right.

Edward,  son  and  heir,  was  only  one  year  old  when  his  father  died,  anno  1501. 
His  wardship  was  given  to  Sir  Thomas  Brandon,  Knt.  who  in  his  will,  dated  1 1 
January  1509,  says,  "  I  will  that  the  marriage  of  the  Lord  Say,  whose  wardship 
I  have,  shall  remain  to  Charles  Brandon  during  the  Lord  Say's  nonage."  This  is 
most  indisputable  proof  of  his  being  considered  as  Lord  Say  at  that  time.  (Yinc.

tenements  which  his  father  held  in  capite,  on  tlie  day  of  his

12  Edw.  I.  in  Salop  that  said  Peter  Corbet  the  father  was 
charged  with  100  pounds  for  his  relief  upon  the  death  of 
Thomas  his  father,  one  hundred  pounds  being  at  that  time  the 
usual  relief  for  a  Barony,  but  now,  on  reference  to  Magna 
Carta,  it  was  ordered  that  no  more  than  100  marlcs  should  be 
paid.  r 

These  two  Peters  were  regularly  summoned  to  Parliament 
from  22  Edw.  I.  to  15  Edw.  II.  when  the  last  Peter  died  with- 
out  issue,  and  the  Barony  fell  into  abeyance  between  Stafford, 
Harley,  and  Cornwall.*  StafFord  was  already  a  Baron ; 
neither  Harley  nor  Cornwall  was  ever  summoned.

HiLTON,  23  Edw.  I.— Vol.  II.  p.  6. 

In  the  23rd,  24ih,  and  25th  of  Edw.  I.  Robert  de  Hilton  of 
Hilton  in  the  county  Palatine  of  Durham  had  summons  to  Par- 
liament  amongst  the  Barons  of  this  realm.*  And  in  the  4th  of 
Edw.  II.  was  in  the  expedition  ihen  made  into  Scotland."  This 
Robert  married  Margaret,  one  of  the  three  daughters  of  Marma- 
duke  de  Thwenge,  by  whom  he  had  issue  two  daughters,  his  co- 
heirs ;  Isabella,  wife  of  Sir  Walter  Pedwardyn,  knt. ;  and  Maud, 
married  to  Sir  John  Hotham,  Knt. ;  *  and  upon  the  death  of 
Thomas  Thwenge,  the  last  surviving  brother  of  the  said  Mar- 
garet,  it  was  found  that  the  said  Isabella  Pedwardyn  and  John 
Hotham,  son  of  the  said  Maud,  were  amongst  the  coheirs  of 
Thwenge  as  representatives  of  the  said  Margaret. 

From  Isabella  de  Pedwardyn  descended  Sir  Robert  her  son 
and  heir :  Sir  Robert  married  Elizabeth  daughter  of  Sir 
Edmund  Pierrepoint,  and  had  issue  Walter  Pedwardyn,  Esq. 
who  died  a9.  9  Hen.  VI.  ieaving  issue  by  Katharine  his  wife, 
daughter  of  Sir  John  Ingilby,  of  Ripley,  in  the  county  of  York, 
Knt.  R(^er  his  son  and  heir,  Thomas  who  died  without  issue, 
and  four  daughters.  Roger  Pedwardyn  had  two  sons,  Christo- 
pher  and  Peter,  who  both  died  minors,  and  in  ward  to  Sir  John 
Hussey  of  Sleaford.  The  issue  male  of  Isabella  Pedwardyn  thus 
failing,  the  four  daughters  of  Walter  Pedwardyn  above  men- 
tioned,  viz.  1.  Anne,  2.  Joan,  3.  Katharine,  and  4.  Margaret, 
became  her  heirs. 

I.  Anne  married  John  Quickerell  of  Boston,  in  the  county  of 
Lincoln,  and  left  a  numerous  issue. 

II.  Joan  died  without  issue.

grandfather  of  Lord  Burghley.  By  the  second  she  had  no 
children ;  but  by  the  first  she  had  a  son  named  James  Dene,

secondly  to  William  Vernon,  by  whom  she  had  an  only  daugh-

Esq.  by  whom  she  had  only  a  daughter  named  Mary,  who  mar-

cis  and  Richard,  who  were  Hving  in  1562.

second  wife  to  Henry  Saville  of  Lupset,  in  the  county  of  York, 
Esq.  Her  lineal  descendant  and  heir  was  William  Saville, 
Marquis  of  Halifax,  who  left  three  daughters  and  coheirs,  viz. 

L  Anne,  wife  of  Charles  Bruce,  Earl  of  Ailesbury,  whose 
sole  heir  atpresent  (1807)  is  the  RightHonourable  Lady  Temple, 
daughter  and  heir  of  the  late  Duke  of  Chandos.

mother  of  the  present  Earl.  (1807.) 

IV.  Margaret,  the  fourth  daughter  of  Walter  Pedwardyn, 
as  above  mentioned,  became  the  wife  of  Alexander  Leeke,  son  of 
Matthew  Leeke,  of  Leeke,  co.  Lincoln  :  whether  there  was  any 
issue  of  this  marriage  or  not,  I  cannot  say  at  present.

MEMORIALS    OF   THE    FAMILY   OF   STUMPE,    OF    MALMESBURY, 

The  following  is  a  passage  of  Le1and'8  Itinerary :  "  Thc  hole 
l(^ginges  of  th'  abbay  [of  Malmesbyri]  be  now  longging  to  one  Stumpe, 
an  exceeding  riche  clothiar  that  boute  them  of  the  King.  This 
Stumpe'8  sonne  hath  maried  Sir  Edward  Baynton's  doughter. 

"  This  Stumpe  was  the  chef  causer  and  contributor  to  have  th'abbay 
chirch  made  a  paroch  chirch. 

"  At  this  present  tyme  every  corner  of  the  vaste  houses  of  ofBce 
that  beloDgid  toth'abbay  be  fulle  of  lumbes  [looms]  to  weve  clooth  yn, 
and  this  Stumpe  entendith  to  make  a  stret  or  2  for  clothiers  in  the 
vacant  groand  of  the  abbay  that  is  withyn  the  towne  wauUes.  There 
be  made  now  every  yere  in  the  towne  a  3000  clothes."  (Itin.  vol.  ii. 
fol.  27.) 

From  a  previous  passage  it  appears  that  even  a  portion  of  the  charch 
WM  then  filled  with  looms  j  namely,  that  ancient  portion  which  was 
considered  a  separate  "  little  church  joining  to  the  soath  side  of  the 
iranseptum  of  tli'  abbay  chirch." 

The  abbey  of  Malmesbur)-  was  purchased  by  William  Stnmpe  of  tlie 
Crown  in  31  Hen.  VIII  for  1500/.  2*.  0|rf.  » 

A  grant  from  Hen.  VIII.  to  Wm.  Stumpe  dated  20  Nov  36  Hen.VIII. 
(1545)  is  preserved  in  the  Earl  of  Snffolk's  Record-room  at  Charlton. 

Fuller  in  his  Worthies  of  England,  under  Wiltshire,  notices  Stumpe  " 
as  a  benefactor  to  the  pablic  (in  procuring  the  abbey  church  for  the 
parish).  "  He  was  (he  says)  in  his  age  one  of  the  most  eraineut 
Clothiers  in  England  ;  of  whom  there  passeth  a  story  told  with  some 
variation  of  circumstances.  but  generally  to  this  purpose.  King  Henry 
the  Eighth,  hunting  near  Malmesbury  in  Bredon  Forest,  came  with  all 
his  Court  Train,  unexpected,  to  dine  with  this  Clothier.  Bnt  great 
housekeepers  are  as  seldome  surprised  with  guests  as  vigilant  captains 
with  enemies.  Stump  commands  his  little  army  of  workmen,  which  he 
fed  daily  in  his  house,  to  fast  oue  meal  untill  night  (which  they  might 
easily  doe  without  endangering  their  health)^  and  with  the  same  provi-

declare,  what  his  pleasure  is  concerning  ihat  proposition  of 
allotments,  and  to  frame  such  favourable  answers  to  their  se- 
cond  desire,  that  the  counties  charge  may  be  eased,  and  their 
chearefullnesse  in  the  service  thereby  increased ;  you  may  fur- 
ther  be  pleased,  with  tender  of  my  humblest  service,  to  re- 
present  unto  his  Highnesse,  that  the  gentlemen  latelie  imployed 
in  the  presenting  of  the  Counlies  Petiiion  to  his  Mat'S  are  now

addressed  unto  his  Highnesse  a  Ire  not  much  varying  (I  believe) 

^  Soon  after  his  appointmeDt  to  the  office  of  Sheriff,  Sir  Francis  received  direc-

SEPULCHRAL    INSCRIPTIONS    IN    THE    CHAPEL    OF    THE    IRISH 
COLLEGE    AT    PARIS. 

The  College  des  Irlandais,  or  "  Seminarium  Clericorum  Hiberno- 
rum,"  according  to  the  inscription  affixed  over  the  principal  gateway 
on  the  inside,  is  situated  in  a  small  street  on  the  southern  side  of  the 
Mont  Ste.  Genenfeve,  formerly  called  the  Rue  du  Cheval-vert,  but  now 
the  Rue  des  Irlandais.  It  is  a  substantial  stone  building,  which,  though 
without  much  architectural  omament,  is  not  devoid  of  dignity,  and  is 
commodiously  disposed  within  for  the  reception  of  its  flourishing  com- 
munity.  It  surrounds  three  sides  of  a  court ;  on  the  south  of  which  is 
the  chapel,  with  the  library  above  it ;  on  the  north  the  refectory  and 
part  of  the  students'  rooms ;  on  the  west  are  the  president's  lodgings, 
the  rooms  of  the  professors,  the  lecture  rooms,  and  the  chambers  of 
the  major  part  of  the  students.  The  eastern  side  is  open,  the  ground 
being  there  planted  with  a  grove  of  chesnut  trees.  The  buildings  date 
about  ten  years  previous  to  the  Revolution,  the  college  having  been  at 
that  time  transferred  from  the  CoUege  des  Lombards  in  the  Rue  des 
Carmes,  in  order  to  aliow  of  more  extensive  accommodation  being  giveu 
to  its  increasing  numbers. 

The  history  o£  this  foundation  is  not  without  interest.  The  College 
des  Lombards  was  founded  in  1330  by  four  Italians, — Andreas  Chini, 
a  native  of  Florence,  and  successively  Bishop  of  Arras  and  Tournay, 
after  having  been  Chaplain  to  Charles  the  Fair,  and  ultimately  Cardi- 
nal ;  Francisco  de  THospital,  a  burgess  of  Modena,  and  Chaplain  or 
clerk  of  the  King's  Arbaletriers,  or  crossbow  men  ;  Rinaldo  Giovanni, 
burgess  of  Pistoija,  and  apothecary  at  Paris  ;  and  Manuel  Rolandi  of 
Piacenza,  Canon  of  St.  Marcel  of  Paris, — all  fonr  resident  at  that  time 
in  the  French  capital.  Their  joint  foundation  consisted  of  eleven  Bur- 
sarships  for  as  many  poor  scholars,  natives  of  those  cities  to  which 
the  founders  owed  their  births,  and  who  wcre  not  to  bc  possessed  of 
more  than  twenty  livres  Parisis  of  yearly  revenue.  The  Bishop  of 
Arras  founded  four  of  these  Bursarships,  the  burgess  of  Modena  three, 
the  burgess  of  Pistoija  three,  and  the  Canon  of  St.  Marcel  one.  The 
yearly  value  of  each  of  their  bursarships  was  fourteen  florins  ;  and  the 
Bishop  addcd  to  his  gift  the  liberal  donation  of  the  house  itself  in 
which  he  had  iirst  established  thcm  iu  the  Ruc  St.  Hiiaire,  afterwards 


112  SEPULCHRAL    INSCRIPTIONS    IN 

called  the  Rue  des  Carmes  froin  the  Convent  situated  at  its  foot.  *  The 
name  given  to  this  college  was  "  La  Maison  des  Pauvres  Ecoliers  Ita- 
liens  de  la  Charite  de  la  bienheureuse  Marie;"  and  for  the  government 
of  the  society  three  provisors  or  directors  were  appointed,  who  were 
three  clerks,  resident  at  Paris,  one  a  native  of  Tuscany,  another  of 
Lomhardy,  and  the  third  of  the  Campagna  di  Roma ;  the  chancelior  of 
the  cathedral  church  of  Paris  and  the  abbot  of  St.  Victor  were  also 
named  perpetual  visitors  and  protectors  of  the  college. 

It  seems,  according  to  Felibien  and  Lobineau,  that  various  bursar- 
ships  for  Spanish  students  were  afterwards  added  to  this  foundation  ; 
but  we  have  no  very  positive  information  on  the  subject.  The  college 
itself  in  lapse  of  time  declined,  and  fell  into  a  state  of  premature  disso- 
lution,  80  much  so  that  in  1677  two  Irish  clergyraen  of  distinguishcd 
attainments  and  indefatigable  activity,  Drs.  Patrick  Maginn  and  Ma- 
lachy  Kelly,  obtaiued  letters  patent  from  Louis  XIV.  for  appropriating 
the  college  to  the  education  of  priests  for  Ireland,  and  for  Catholic 
tnissionaries  to  any  part  of  the  three  kingdoms.  Immediately  on  these 
being  granted  they  laid  the  first  stone  of  a  new  building,  and  under 
their  anspices,  aided  by  the  liberality  of  their  fellow  countrymen,  the 
college  rapidly  rose  to  a  state  of  high  prosperity. 

William  Postel  lectured  for  some  time  in  this  college,  and  with  so 
much  success,  that  the  hall  of  the  Society  was  insufficient  to  accom- 
modate  the  auditory,  and  he  used  accordingly  to  lecture  frora  one  of 
the  windows  of  the  building,  while  the  studcnts  and  other  auditors 
filled  the  quadrangle  below.  In  1763,  the  number  of  students  of  all 
ranks  in  tliis  college  was  165,  and  in  1779  the  number  of  priests  resi- 
dent  in  it  was  one  hundred,  of  students  sixty  ;  raost  of  the  latter  being 
supported  by  bursarships,  and  the  rest  paying  only  a  very  moderate 
sura  for  their  raaintenance  to  the  Society.  The  chapel  had  beeu  built 
by  the  Abbe  de  Vaubrun,  after  the  designs  of  Bosery  ;  it  is  a  small  but 
elegant  erection  of  the  lonic  order  ;  the  rest  of  the  edifice  is  of  the  sarae 
plain  and  massivc  style  which  prevails  in  all  tlie  Parisian  colleges  of  the 
same  date.  At  this  period  it  was  judged  advisable  to  trausfer  the 
Society  to  a  raore  spacious  building  in  the  Rue  du  Cheval-vcrt ;  and  it 
was  raoved  accordingly.  Upon  this  occasion  all  the  raonumental  in- 
scriptions  were  transported  from  the  old  chapel  to  that  in  the  new 
buildings,  and  the  ancient  edifice  was  given  over,  very  injudiciously  we 
think,  to  secular  purposes.  ^  1  he  CoUcge  has  a  couutry  bouse  at  Arcueil. 

*  The  site  f  this  coDvent  is  now  occupied  by  the  March6  des  Carmes  :  one  side 
of  which  is  still  formed  by  the  CoUege  de  St.  Jean  de  Beauvais. 

*>  The  old  chapel  of  the  CoUege  des  Lombards  still  exists,  the  property  belong- 
ing  to  thc  present  Irish  Society ;  and  io  the  vaults  underoeath  it  some  inscriptiom 
remain,  but  they  are  closed  up  and  are  thcrefore  iuacces»ible. 


THE    IRISH    COLLEGE    AT    PARIS.  113 

Both  the  foundation  and  the  buildings,  old  and  new,  have  sumved 
the  Revolution  ;  all  and  each  are  now  as  flourishing  as  at  the  first  day 
of  tbeir  institution.  This  is  to  be  attrihuted  to  the  numbers  of  Irish 
ecclesiastical  students  contiuually  flocking  to  the  continent,  and  who 
have  naturally  h\ed  themselves  at  Paris,  the  seat  of  so  much  learning 
and  science,  even  in  the  most  calamitous  periods  of  its  history.  The 
greater  part  of  the  property  of  the  Irish  CoIIege  was  restored  to  it  by 
Napoleou,  and  is  now  enjoyed  by  it,  subject  to  the  control  of  the  state. 
Tlie  present  Society  consists  of  a  President  (the  Rev.  Dr.  M<^Sweeny) 
and  four  Professors,  of  Dogmatic  Theology,  Morality,  Philosophy,  and 
Humanity,  with  a  bursar. 

The  number  of  students  is  about  ninety,  by  far  the  major  part  of 
whom  enjoy  good  bursarships  ;  while  the  number  of  priests  sent  out 
by  the  CoIIege  every  year  is  abont  twenty. 

We  have  only  to  add,  that  this  Institution  stands  high  in  the  estima- 
tion  of  the  Catholic  world  for  the  learning  of  its  President  and  Profes- 
sors,  and  for  the  good  services  done  to  religion  and  learning  by  tbe 
many  distinguished  men  who  have  been  educated  within  its  walls. 

The  collegiate  dress  of  the  members  of  the  Society,  the  only  remnant 
of  such  a  custom  among  the  old  coUeges  of  Paris,  is  a  black  cassock,  of 
cloth  or  serge  ;  and  a  square-topped  Roman  cap,  without  a  tassel,  but 
with  three  rays  extending  to  as  many  corners  of  it,  the  fourth  ray  being 
wanting,  probably  in  some  allusiou  to  the  ecclesiastical  value  of  the 
trinary  number ;  each  member  wears  at  the  neck  black  bands  with 
white  borders. 

The  college  itself,  and  also  the  chapel,  are  under  the  invocation  of  the 
Virgin  Mary.e  In  the  latter,  and  in  its  vestibule,  are  several  monu- 
mental  inscriptions,  copies  of  which  will  be  found  below ;  and  most  of 
which  were  origiually  placed  in  the  chapel  of  the  CoIIege  des  Lombards. 
They  are  all  on  slabs  affixed  to  the  walls. 

At  the  time  of  the  Revolution  this  edifice  did  not  escape  profanation  ; 
and  even  after  the  reign  of  terror  the  votaries  of  Terpsichore  moved  on 
"  the  light  fantastic  toe  "  within  the  grave  walls  of  this  seat  of  study. 
It  is  now  the  abode  of  learned  and  pious  men,  as  it  was  originally  in- 
tended  to  be,  but  its  refectory  is  always  open  to  the  Hibernian  eccle- 
siastical  traveller,  and  the  hospitality  of  the  Rev.  Principal  and  Pro- 
fessors  towards  British  visitors  of  the  Frcnch  capital  is  well-known.and 
gratefuily  appreciated. 

It  is  not  aninteresting  to  add,  that  the  body  of  James  II.  was  brought 
to  tbis  college  after  the  destruction  of  the  Englbh  Benedictine  monas- 

»  The  inscription  over  the  gateway  of  the  College  des  Lombards  was  "  Colle- 
ginm  Beatje  Maris  Virginis,  pro  Clericis  Hibemis  in  AcademiA  Parisiensi  studen- 
tibas,  instaoratom  anno  I68I,  pro  Italis  fundatum  anno  1330."

tery  adjoining  thc  Val  de  Grace,  and  remaincd  for  some  years  in  a  tem- 
porary  tomb  in  one  of  the  lecturc  halls,  then  used  as  the  chapel.  It 
was  afterwards  removcd,  by  whose  authority,  and  to  what  place,  is  not 
exactly  known :  but  it  is  considered  not  improbable  that  it  was  trans- 
ported  to  the  church  of  St.  Germain-en-Laye,  and  there  buried,  under 
the  monument  erected  by  George  IV.  d 

The  following  inscriptions  are  exact  copies  of  the  originals,  most  of 
which  are  in  gold  letters  on  black  marble  tablets  afBxed  to  the  walJs  of 
the  edifice,  above  the  seats  of  the  members  of  the  Society,  Nos.  1  to 
4  inclusive,  are  on  the  south  side,  reckoning  from  the  east  to  the  west ; 
Nos.  5  to  7  inclusive,  are  on  the  north  side,  reckoning  from  west  to

MUSTER    ROLL    FOR   THE    RAPE    OF    HASTINGS,    13   EDW.    III. 

The  foUowing  Roll  of  "armed  men"  is  transcribed  fromaMS.  in  the 
College  of  Arms,  marked  L.  17,  written  about  the  time  of  King  James 
the  First,  apparently  extracted  from  a  cartulary  of  Battle  Abbey.  Being 
describcd  as  takcn  from  "  the  first  book,"  the  cartulary  was  in  all 
probability  that  in  two  volumes,  which  formerly  belonged  to  the  Web- 
STEBS  of  Battle  Abbcy,  and  was  a  short  time  sincc  purchased  by  Sir 
Thomas  Phillipps,  of  Middle  Hill,  Bart.  A  Commission  for  an  array 
of  men  throughout  the  several  counties  of  England,  was  issued  13 
Edw.  III.  (1339-40),  the  country  being  then  threatened  with  foreign 
invasion,  a  The  writ  for  the  county  of  Sussex  was  directed  to  Robert  Bi- 
shop  of  Chichester,  John  de  Warren  Earl  of  Surrey,  Richard  Earl  of 
Arundel,  Henry  Husee,  Thomas  de  Brewosa,  and  Edward  de  St.  John 
Ihe  uncle,  who  were  directed  to  elect  from  that  county  50  men  at  arms, 
200  armed  men,  and  200  archers ;  it  is  presumed  that  the  following 
Roll  was  returned  to  the  Commissioners  as  containing  the  names  of  all 
the  individuals  within  the  Rape  of  Hastings  liable  to  serve  the  King  in 
his  wars,  and  that  from  this  number  the  Commissioners  were  em- 
powered  to  choose  the  quota  of  men  for  the  Rape,  whom  the  King  re- 
quired  for  his  immediate  service. 

Any  inaccuracies  which  may  occur  in  the  spelling  of  the  names,  arise 
from  the  MS.  having  been  strictly  followed.

Page  28,  line  6,  after  "  Monastery."  In  the  last  Heraldic 
Visitation  of  Shropshire  made  by  Sir  William  Dugdale  in  1663,» 
it  appears  that  at  the  east  end  of  the  south  aisle  of  the  abbey 
church,  Shrewsbury,  there  remained  a  large  figure  of  a  man  in 
armour  of  mail  and  cross-legged,  with  a  surcoat  over  his  mail, 
close  girded  to  him  with  a  belt,  his  right  hand  drawiiig  his 
sword,  and  his  left  holding  the  scabbard.  On  his  left  side  a 
large  shield,  and  at  his  feet  a  lion.  Upon  the  wall,  over  this 
figure,  was  the  foUowing  inscription :  "  This  figure,  being  found 
amongst  the  ancient  ruins  of  the  monastery  of  St.  Peter  and  St. 
Paul,  which  was  there  placed  in  remembrance  of  Roger  de 
Montgomery,  sometimes  Earl  of  Shrewsbury,  was,  by  directions 
of  his  Maj^sty's  Heralds  of  Arms,  in  their  Visitation  of  this 
County  aP.  1623,  brought  into  this  place,  to  remain  in  perpetual 
memory  of  the  said  right  noble  Founder."  ^

granted  to  the  church  of  Abingdon  that  the  hide  of  land  which

it  has  been  shown  to  be  most  probable  that  there  were  two  heiresses  named  Lucia, 
the  former  the  daughter  of  Algar  Earl  of  Chester  (and  sister  to  Edgiva  Queen  of 
Harold),  married  to  Yvo  Tailbois  ;  and  the  second,  liis  daughter,  married  first  to

Bishop  of  St.  Asaph,  lying  within  his  said  lordship,  during  the

stood  that  the  King  had  given  him  the  rights  and  liberties  be-

to  the  FitzAlans. 

1.  17^,  make  a  note.     Brooke,  in  his  Catalogue  of  No- 

bility,  says  this  John  Earl  Warren  married  a  second  wife  Joan, 
daughter  of  William  Lord  Mowbray,  and  that  from  that  mar- 
riage  the  family  of  Warren  of  Poynton  in  Cheshire  was  de- 
scended.  This,  however,  is  sufficiently  disproved  by  Vin- 
cent  iii  his  corrections  of  that  Catalogue,  and  I  only  mention  it 
here  by  way  of  caveat  to  that  supposed  descent,  of  which  I  know 
there  are  many  advocates,  but  no  proofs.

Bars)  did  certainly  not  die  till  sixteen  years  after  this  time,  as 
Dugdale  himself  states  in  the  following  page.  Whether  a  di- 
vorce  had  really  taken  place  on  account  of  her  husband  having 
been  previously  contracted  to  Maud  de  Nerford,*»  or  whether  (as 
may  be  thought  from  his  will)  he  really  married  Isabel  de  Hou- 
land  before  the  death  of  the  lady  in  question,  will  be  seen  here-

after ;  this  much  is  certain,  that  after  the  supposed  divorce,  and 
the  supposed  second  marriage,  Joan  de  Bars  is  constantl y  styled  • 
Countess  of  Warren  or  Countess  of  Surrey  and  Sussex.     She  is 
considered  as  his  wife  in  the  inquisition  taken  after  his  death,  ^ 
which  states  him  to  have  died  seised  of  the  manor  of  Bokeland 
in  her  right ;  the  register  of  Lewes  names  no  other  wife  for  him, 
but  takes  notiee  of  this  lady,  and  records  the  time  of  her  death, 
though  she  was  not  buried  in  England,  in  these  words : — 
"  Dna  Joha  de  Baars  Comitissa  Surr.  filia

month  of  June,  though  the  terms  were  so  advantageous  to  the 
King,  was  annulled  and  cancelled  in  December  following,  about 
six  montlis  before  his  death,  upon  a  representation  from    the 
Earl  of  Arundel   that  the  same  honours  and   lands  had  been 
formerly  surrendered  by  the  same  Earl  to  King  Edward  II.  and 
a  settlement  made  thereof  by  ihe  said  King  Edward   II.   upon 
him  the  said  John  de  Warren  and  Joan  his  wife,  and  the  heirs 
male  of  his  body,  and  in  case  he  should  die  without  issue  male, 
remainder  after  his  death  and  the  death  of  his  said  wife,  to  Ed- 
mund   Earl  of  Arundel  and  Alicia  his  wife  deceased,  and  to 
Richard  son  of  the  said  Earl  of  Arundel  and  Isabel  then  wife  of 
the  said  Richard,  and  to  the  heirs  of  the  body  of  the  said  Richard 
and  Isabel,  and  in  default  of  such  issue  of  said  Richard  and  Isa- 
bel,    remainder    to    the   right  heirs  of  him  the  said  John   de 
Warren,  Earl  of  Surrey.     And  the  Patent  states  that  the  King, 
not  being  fully  instructedas  to  such  settlement  made  byhis  father, 
had  accepted  the  surrender  of  said  honours,  &c.  to  him  and  his 
heirs,  and  settled  the  same  on  the  said  Earl  of  Surrey  to  hold  to 
him  and  the  heirs  of  his  body  lawfully  begotten,  and  for  default 
of  such  issue,  remainder  to  the  King  and  his  heirs.     And  being 
now  satisfied  therein,  and  considering  that  it  became  him  rather 
to  enforce  than  infringe  whatever  his  father  had  lawfully  settled, 
he  resigns,  annuls,  and  revokes  entirely  all  that  he  himself  had 
received  or  done  in  the  premises  to  the  prejudice  of  the  said 
Earl  of  Arundel  and  the  settlement  made  by  his  said  father.

The  family  was  seated  in  Poitou,  and  this  Hugh,  who  married 
the  elder  coheir  of  Malet,  was  steward  of  Poitou,  Aquitaine  and 
Gascony,  under  King  Henry  the  Third.  He  had  issue  by  the 
said  Mabel  two  sons,  William  and  Hugh,  and  one  daughter 
naraed  after  her  maternal  aunt  Helewisa,  and  married  to  Wal- 
ter  son  of  Saher  de  WahuU.  *  William  the  eldest  son  was 
called  de  Fortibus  (ob  militarem  virtutem)  and  in  32  Hen.  HI. 
had  leave  to  go  over  to  Poitou  to  recover  such  lands  and  tene- 
ments  as  ought  to  descend  to  him  by  inheritance  from  the  death 
of  Americ  de  Vivonia  his  uncle.'*.  He  married  Maud  de  Kyme, 
sixth  daughter  and  coheir  of  Sybyl  de  Ferrars,  by  whom  he  had 
four  daughters  his  coheirs,  viz.  first,  Johan,  wife  of  Reginald 
FitzPeter:  second,  Cecilia,  wife  of  John  Lord  Beauchamp  of 
Hache ;  third,  Sybyl,  wife  of  Guy  de  Roche-Chiward ;  and 
fourth,  Mabel,  wife  of  Foulk  de  Archiaco. 

Hugh  de  Vivonia,  second  son  of  Hugh  by  Mabel  Malet,  held 
the  manor  of  Sellinge  in  Kent,  which  he  obtained  (as  I  conjec- 
ture)  with  his  wife  Petronilla,  daughter  of  William  de  Putot : 
he  was  slain  in  Wales,  and  left  issue  by  his  said  wife  a  son, 
named  John  de  Vivonia,  who  died  sfi.  8  Edw.  II.  seised  of  the 
manor  of  Sellinge  aforesaid,  which  he  held  of  the  King  in  chief 
by  the  service  of  one  knight*s  fee  and  the  payment  of  ten  shil- 
lings  annually  for  castle  ward  of  Dover ;  and  Peter  FitzRegi-

heirs  of  William  de  Fortibus,  uncle  of  the  said  John,  and  Cecih'a

In  the  south  wall  of  this  chancell  is  an  arch,  wherein  lies  the  figare  of  John  Tal- 
bot  (the  first  Earle  of  Shrewsbury  of  that  family)  in  armour,  over  which  is  his 
mantle  of  the  Order  of  the  Garter,  verged  round  with  foure  welts,  having  on  the 
left  shoulder  thereof  St.  George  his  crosse  within  a  garter ;  and  about  his  left  legg 
the  garter  ;  the  motto  whereof  beginneth  at  the  labell.  Upon  his  head  is  a  coronet, 
the  flowres  and  pearles  whereof  are  raysed  in  this  sort.  (The  MS.  has  a  repre- 
sentation  of  the  coronet.) 

In  the  npper  part  of  this  arch  there  was  a  brasse  plate,  whereon  this  epitaph 
was  graven : 

"  Orate  pro  anima  prenobilis  domini,  domini  Jobannis  Talbot  quondam  comitis

the  successor  in  the  Earldom  taking  only  those  dignities  which 
were  limited  to  heirs  male  in  the  original  letters  patent  by  which 
they  were  created.  I  make  this  remark,  because  Collins,  Ed-

ascribed  to  the  subsequent  Earls  all  the  Baronies  by  writ  that 
were  attributed  to  the  father  of  the  Lady  Alathea ;  in  some  of

name,  who  succeeded  him  in  the  dignity,  and  who  dying  in  a».

Arundel  Castle  was  not  assigned  to  him,  but  to  John  Fitz  Alan, 
a  minor  in  ward  to  the  King,  son  of  one  of  the  younger  sisters. 

■ from  Jine  63  to  69,  is  all  a  mistake.     The  lady  there 

described  was  not  the  wife  of  that  Robert  de  Tateshall,  but  of 
his  son,  as  is  correctly  stated  in  the  next  column.  I  am  sorry  I 
cannot  furnish  a  wife  to  supply  the  place  of  the  lady  whom  I 
have  transferred  to  his  son. 

P.  440'',  1.  38,  after  "  sisters,"  note.  These  ladies  were  his 
aunts,  not  his  sisters,  which  is  thus  proved  by  inquisition  p.  m. 
of  the  minor,  wherein  they  are  expressly  called  sisters  of  his 
grandfather,  and  also  by  Esc.  18  Ric.  II.  no.  34,  after  the  death 
of  Mary  Lady  Roos  of  Hamlake,  great-granddaughter  of  Isabel 
de  Orreby. 

1.  47,  after  "  Cove,"  add.     I  do  not  find  any  other 

authority  for  this  marriage  with  Cove;  on  the  contrary,  at  her 
death,  a^.  24  Edw.  III.  she  is  described  only  as  the  widow  of 
Tateshale.  S 

P.  441,  1.  7,  add.  The  Barony  of  Tateshall  was  a  Barony  by 
tenure,  and  ranks  amongst  the  oldest.  The  earliest  writ  of 
summons  is  of  the  23rd  of  Edw.  I.  but  it  is  not  therefore  lo  be 
concluded  that  they  were  not  Peers  of  ParHament  before  that 
time;  the  notorious  defect  of  Parliamentary  Records  forbids 
such  a  conclusion.  The  Baron  to  whom  the  first  writ  issued,  had 
then  been  more  than  twenty  years  at  the  head  of  tlie 
family  ;   he  continued  to  be  summoned  till  the  year  in  which  he

died,  which  was  26  Edw.  I. ;  his  son,  who  succeeded  him,  was 
summoned  the  27th,  and  from  that  to  the  30th,  but  dying  in  the 
31st,  and  leaving  only  one  son,  of  the  age  of  fifteen,  who  died 
in  his  minority  without  issue,  the  male  line  became  extinct.  It 
is  remarkable  that  in  the  famous  letter  of  the  Barons  to  the 
Pope  in  28  Edw.  I.  where  each  appears  to  describe  himself  by 
the  title  of  his  Barony,  Robert  Tateshale  writes,  "  Robertus 
de  Tatteshale  Dominus  de  Bukenham ;  "  yet  in  the  inquisition 
after  his  death  it  is  found  that  he  held  Tateshale  and  other  lands 
"  per  Baroniam  integram,"  and  Bukenham  and  others  "  per 
servitium  Pincernae." 

Upon  the  death  of  the  rainor,  the  Barony  fell  into  abeyance 
amongst  the  three  coheirs  abovenamed,  and  upon  partition  of 
the  lands  each  of  them  inherited  a  third  of  the  Barony  of 
Tateshale ;  a  third  of  a  fourth  of  the  Earldom  of  Arundel,  and 
a  third  of  a  fourth  of  the  Earldom  of  Chester.  Of  these  co- 
heirs  Thomas  de  Cayley  and  John  de  Orreby  were  both  sum- 
moned  to  Parliament  in  the  2nd,  3rd,  and  4th  of  King  Edw.  II. 
but  not  afterwards,  although  Cayley  lived  till  the  lOth,  and  Orre- 
by  till  the  llth  Edw.  II.  It  is  probable  that  both  Cayley  and 
Orreby  were  called  to  Parliament  in  consequence  of  this  con- 
nexion,  but  there  is  nothing  allusive  thereto  in  any  of  the  writs. 
Orreby's  issue  became  extinct  in  18  Ric.  II.  Driby's  issue  in 
the  third  generation  terminated  in  a  sole  heiress  married  to  Sir 
Ralph  de  Cromwell,  who  did  homage  for  the  lands  of  her 
inheritance  a».  35  Edw.  III.  and  was  summoned  to  Parliament 
&°.  40.     (See  Cromwell  of  Tatteshall,  page  149.)

CORBET    OF    CaUS. Vol.  I.  p.  .515. 

The  Barony  created  by  writs,  from  22  Edw.  I.  to  15  Edw.  II. 
became  extinct  upon  the  death  of  Peter  in  16  Edw.  II.  there 
being  then  no  issue  remaining  of  the  body  of  that  Feter  in  whom 
the  dignity  commenced. 

P.  516,  1.  42,yor  "  10  Edw.  III."  read  10  Edw.  I. 

1.  49,  qfier  "  France,"  add,  In  11  Edw.  I.  he  had  a 

grant  of  100/.  out  of  the  lands  of  John  de  Beauchamp  deceased, 
nomine  Custodiae,  until  the  heir  of  said  John  should  arrive  at 
full  age.' 

P.  516b,  1,  17,  a/ter  "  heirs,"  note.  This  Beatrix  was  a  daugh- 
ter  of  John  de  Bello  Campo,  or  Beauchamp,  of  Somerset.  After 
the  death  of  Peter  Corbet  she  married  John  de  Leyburne,  but 
died  wiihout  issue,  a".  22  Edw,  III.  and  John  de  Beauchamp, 
son  of  John,  son  of  another  John,  brother  of  said  Beatrix,  was 
found  to  be  her  heir,  and  twenty  years  old.  ^ 

1.  64,  a/ter  "lands,"  add,    In  1  Edw.  II.  he  obtained 

license  lo  settle  the  moieties  of  ihe  manors  of  Brixton  and  Hur- 
berton  on  himself  and  Beatrix  his  wife,  and  the  heirs  of  said 
Beatrix  :  Upon  which  occasion  the  jurors,  in  an  inquisition  ad 
q.  d.,  returned  that  the  moiety  of  Hurberton  was  held  of  the 
King  by  Barony,  and  that  the  moiety  of  Brixton  is  a  member 
of  and  belongs  to  the  manor  of  Hurberton ;  that  Peter  would 
still  have  the  castle  and  manor  of  Caus,  in  the  county  of  Salop, 
which  he  held  of  the  King  by  Barony,  and  which  was  of  the 
value  of  100/. ;  that  the  moiety  of  Hurberton  was  worth  28 
shillings,  and  that  of  Brixton  100.

seised  might  settle  the  same  upon  said  Earl  and  the  heirs  of  his 
body;  remainder,  in  failure  of  such  issue,  to  the  King  and  his 
heirs.  And  the  King  further  granted  to  him  a  similar  license 
of  alienation  of  all  his  other  castles,  lordships,  manors,  lands  and 
tenements,  fees  and  advowsons  in  demesne  or  reversion,  as  well 
in  England  as  in  Wales,  except  his  manor  of  Asshele,  co.  Norf.

conjointly  with  others  in  fee  simple,  fee  tail,  or  for  life,  &c. 
whereupon,  ut  dictum  erat,  the  said  Earl  by  his  charter  enfeoffed 
Walter  Amyas,  John  Abraham,  John  Doun,  John  Pratt,  clerks, 
Ralph  de  Walsham  and  Thomas  Cricklade  of  the  said  castle 
and  Earldom,  &c.  and  of  all  his  other  castles,  &c.  except  his 
manor  of  Asshele,  and  said  feoffees,  resettled  the  same  on  said 
Earl  for  five  years,  within  which  term  he  again  surrendered  to 
them  and  their  heirs  for  ever  by  deed  dated  15  Apr.  a».  46 
Edw.  III. ;  and  afterwards,  ut  dicitur,  upon  going  abroad  into 
Gascony,  caused  a  certain  schedule  to  be  written  and  made,  re- 
quiring  his  said  feoffees  to  perform  and  fulfill  his  last  will  therein 
contained,  and  sent  the  same  sealed,  &c.  to  them  by  sea ;  and  upon 
the  said  Earl's  death,  in  partihus  transmarinis,  certain  of  those 
feoffees  came  before  the  King  in  his  Council  at  Westminster, 
at  Michaelmas  ao.  49,  and  delivered  in  the  said  schedule,  which 
was  opened  and  read  before  the  Council.

P.  621,  1.  30.  This  Alice  (Agnes)  was  daughter  of  William 
son  of  Alan  Waleys.  (Cl.  15  Joh.  m.  2.) 

P.  621**,  1.  23,  after  "  accordingly,"  add,  and  thus  this  Barony 
of  Kyme  became  involved  with  that  of  Umfreville,  which  began 
in  the  same  year,  viz.  23  Edw.  I. « 

N.  B.  In  the  pedigree  of  Kyme  (in  Ph.  bl.  fol.  p.  49,  in  the 
Collef  e  of  Arms)  Philip  de  Kyme,  whose  daughter  and  heir 
married  Umfreville,  is  made  to  be  son  of  Maud  de  Ferrars,  but 
it  is  quite  clear  that  Maud  de  Ferrars  had  no  issue  by  her  first 
husband  Kyme,  for  at  her  death  in  27  Edw.  I.  her  children  by 
her  second  husband,  William  de  Vivonia,  were  found  to  be  her 
heirs,  and  in  the  inquisition  her  first  husband  is  called  Simon

COLUMBERS. — Vol.  I.  p.  632. 

The  single  summons  of  22  Edw,  I.  to  John  de  Columbers, 
since  it  was  not  followed  by  any  others,  though  he  lived  till  the 
34th,  I  do  not  consider  as  creating  a  Barony  in  him ;  Philip  his 
son  was  twenty-four  years  old  when  John  died,  but  had  no  writ 
till  nine  years  after,  viz.  a^.  8  Edw.  II.  from  which  time  to  his 
death  in  the  22nd  of  Edw.  III.  he  was  regularly  summoned  to 
every  Parliament,  probably  by  reason  of  his  having  married 
Eleanor,  one  of  the  sisters  and  coheirs  of  William  Martin ;  but, 
as  he  died  without  issue,  the  Barony  created  in  him  by  those 
writs  became  extinct.  It  seems  not  necessary  to  the  object  of 
ihis  work  to  take  particular  notice  of  such  collateral  branches  of

the  families  of  Barons  as  are  not  in  the  line  of  inheritance  of 
the  dignity.  I  shall  therefore  only  say  that  I  find  that  Michael 
de  Columbers,  who  in  a°.  9  Joh.  gave  200  marks  to  the  King 
for  license  to  marry  Avice,  the  daughter  of  Elias  Croc  (and  was 
probably  brother  of  that  Mathew  who  was  one  of  the  governors 
of  Winchester  castle  in  1  John)  was  the  father  of  Mathew  who 
married  Maud  de  Morvill — that  Avice,  the  widow  of  Michael, 
died  in  43  Hen.  III. »  leaving  Mathew  her  son  and  heir  forty 
years  old :  that  the  said  Mathew  died  in  1  Edw.  I.  without  issue 
by  the  said  Maud  de  Morvill,  leaving  the  said  Michael  his  bro- 
ther  and  heir,  sixty  years  old;  that  Maud,  the  widow  of  Mathew, 
married  Henry  de  Cobham — that  Michael  de  Cobham,  as  bro- 
ther  and  heir  of  Mathew,  and  with  the  consent  of  Maud,  gave 
to  John  de  Cobham,  the  father  of  Henry,  the  manors  of  Brent- 
knoll,  Hinton,  and  Pipardsclive,  in  the  county  of  Somerset,  and 
that  the  said  John  settled  the  manor  of  Chesbury  in  Wilts  upon 
Maud  and  his  son.  p 

Earldom  of  Devon Vol.  I.  p.  635. 

Upon  the  death  of  Isabella  de  Fortibus,  which  happened  a». 
21  Edw.  I.  (1293),  the  Earldom  of  Devon  devolved  upon  Hugh 
de  Courtenay  her  cousin.  He  demanded  and  received  the  ter- 
tium  denarium,  but  did  not  assume  or  use  the  title  of  Earl,  but 
was  summoned  to  Parliament  regularly  as  a  Baron,  by  the  style 
of  Hugo  de  Courtenay,  from  27  Edw.  I.  to  8  Edw.  III.  q  The 
Treasurer  and  Barons  of  the  Exchequer  at  length  refused  to  pay 
him,  as  he  did  not  claim  it  nomine  comitis.  Upon  this  he  peti- 
tioned  the  King,  and  the  King  ordered  that  he  should  take  the 
title  and  receive  the  money,  and  from  this  time  (9  Edw.  III.)  he 
is  regularly  summoned  as  Earl  of  Devon.  ^

ters,  Margaret  being  one  of  them,  and  by  the  second  a  son, 
Roger,  who  became  Baron  of  Dudley,  and  left  a  son  John  Lord 
Dudley,  and  two  daughters,  who,  by  their  brother's  death  with- 
out  issue,  became  coheirs  of  the  Barony  of  Dudley.  Margaret 
should  therefore  be  described  as  one  of  the  four  daughters  by 
his  first  wife  of  lloger  de  Somery,  Baron  of  Dudley  and  coheir 
of  her  mother  Nicola,  who  was  one  of  the  four  sisters  and  coheirs 
of  Hugh  de  Albini,  Earl  of  Arundel.  By  which  marriage  the 
Cromvvells  inherited  a  fourth  of  a  fourth  of  the  Earldom  of 
Arundel  with  a  fourth  of  a  tburth  of  a  fourth  of  that  of  Chester. 
This  is  the  language  of  record  rather  than  history,  but  it  is 
adapted  to  the  subject. 

P.  ^^^^,  1.  49  to  p.  45,  1.  49.  This  long  account  of  John  de 
Cromwell  is  here  misplaced :  he  was  certainly  not  a  lineal  an- 
cestor  of  the  Lords  Cromwell  of  Tateshale,  as  the  descent  of  the 
town  of  Lamley  in  Nottinghamshire  clearly  proves.  In  Testa 
de  Nevill  it  appears  that  Ralph  de  Cromwell  held  "  totam 
villam  de  Lameleg  de  honore  de  Tykehill,  et  reddit  per  an- 
num,  40li."8  In  17  Edw.  I.  Dfis  Radus  de  Cromwell  presentat 
ad  Ecclesiam  de  Lamley.'  In  the  24  Edw.  I.  a  patent  passed 
the  Great  Seal  quod  Radus  de  Cromwell  possit  facere  quandam 
trencheam  in  bosco  suo  de  Lamley."  In  T  Edw.  III.  a  patent 
passed  to  Ralph  de  Cromwell  (son  of  the  last)  quod  possit  assar- 
tare  et  includere  parvo  fossato  et  bassa  haia  triginta  acras  vasti 
in  solo  suo  apud  Lamley ;  *  and  this  Ralph  I  take  to  be  the  son 
and  heir  of  that  Ralph  whom  Dugdale  makes  father  of  John, 
and  who  by  inquisition  p.  m.  27  Edw.  I.  is  stated  to  have  died 
in  that  year,  leaving  Ralph  his  son  and  heir  a  minor  only  seven 
years  of  age,  who  afterwards  married  Amicia,  daughter  of  Roger 
de  Bellers,  which  Roger  died  a».  19  Edw.  II.  leaving  Roger  his

P.  45*.  In  the  fine  Roll  of  21  Ric.  II.  termino  Pasch,  it  is 
noted  that  Robert  de  Tateshale,  ancestor  of  Maud  wife  of  Sir 
Ralph  Cromwell,  was  charged  with  102/.  18«.  4d.  viz.  100  marks 
for  the  manors  of  Babinglee,  Denton,  Tybenham,  co.  Norfolk, 
Tateshale  St.  Botolph,  and  Candesby,  co.  Lincoln,  which  said 
Robert  held  of  the  King  in  chief  "per  Baroniam  integram 
secundum  tenore  Magnae  Cartae,"  and  100  shillings  for  the 
manor  of  Toft  and  for  one  knight's  fee,  which  was  originally 
held  of  Gilbert  de  Gaunt,  who  afterwards  gave  all  his  fees  to 
the  King ;  also  25  shillings  for  the  castle  and  manor  of  Boken- 
ham,  the  manor  of  Wymundham,  and  the  hundred  of  Shrop- 
ham  and  Fretherbridge,  in  county  of  Norfolk,  together  with  cer- 
tain  other  lands  there,  which  Robert  his  father  had  in  property 
of  the  inheritance  of  the  late  Earl  of  Arundel.  Itis  also  further 
noted,  that  said  Robert  the  father  acknowledged  to  hold  the 
manor  of  Hunmanby,  co.  York,  of  the  King  in  chief.  And  it  is 
also  further  noted  that  Wymundham  and  Bokenhara  are  held 
of  the  King  in  chief  "  per  servitium  PincemaB." 

P.  46,  1.  27.  This  is  not  correct.  He  had  an  only  sister 
named  Maud,  second  wife  of  Sir  Richard  Stanhope,  Knt.  by 
whom  she  had  a  son  named  Henry,  who  died  without  issue  aP. 
31  Hen.  \  I.,  and  two  daughters  Maud  and  Joan,  who  became 
heirs  to  their  uncle.^  Maud  married  first  to  Robert  Lord  Wil- 
loughby  of  Eresby,  secondly  to  Sir  Thomas  Neville,  and  thirdly 
to  Sir  Gervase  Clifton,  but  had  no  issue  by  either.  Joan  mar- 
ried  to  Humphrey  Bourchier,  a  younger  son  of  the  Earl  of 
Essex  and  nephew  to  King  Edward  the  Fourth,  who  was  pleased 
to  terminate  the  abeyance  of  this  Barony  in  his  favour,  and 
summon  him  to  the  house  of  Peers  by  the  litle  of  Humphrey 
Bourghchier  de  Cromwell,  cheV.  He  died  without  surviving 
issue,  and  his  widow  became  the  wife  of  Sir  Robert  Radcliffe, 
who  also  had  no  issue  by  her.  Maud  Lady  Willoughby,  the 
last  survivorof  the  two,  died  in  1497;  and  then  the  descendants 
of  the  three  aunts,  named  in  the  text,  became  heirs ;  and  amongst 
them  the  dignity  now  remains  in  abeyance.  The  representatives 
of  Hawise  Lady  Bardolph  are  the  Earl  of  Abingdon  and  Thomas

Bavent. — Vol.  II.  p.  64. 

Sir  William  Dugdale  has  certainly  mistaken  the  line  of  Ba- 
vent,  in  the  account  he  has  here  given.  He  says,  that  Robert 
Bavent  was  summoned  to  Parliament  in  the  6th  and  7th  of 
Edward  II.  and  takes  no  notice  of  any  future  summons  either  to 
him  or  his  posterity.  Upon  referring  to  the  writs  of  summons 
it  appears  that  Roger,  not  liobert  Bavent  was  so  summoned,  and 
that  the  same  Roger  was  also  further  summoned  with  great 
regularity  till  the  15th  of  Edw.  II.  when  all  his  possessions  were 
seised  into  the  King's  hands  as  forfeited  by  his  having  been  one 
of  the  adherents  to  the  unfortunate  Earl  of  Lancaster.  His  life, 
however,  was  spared,  and  he  was  included  in  the  general  restora- 
tion  which  took  place  on  the  accession  of  the  succeeding  mo- 
narch.'' 

This  Roger  was  a  minor  at  the  death  of  his  father  Adam  de 
Bavent,  and  his  wardship  was  disputed  between  the  King  and 
William  de  Say  a».  21  Edw.  I.c  It  appears  that  he  was  still 
a  minor  in  the  35th  of  the  same  reign,  when  Geoffry  de  Say,  son 
and  heir  of  the  abovementioned  William,  reasserted  his  claim  to 
the  wardship,  ^  and  ofFered  to  rest  the  proof  of  his  right  upon  a 
scrutiny  of  the  books  and  rolls  of  the  Exchequer,  and  the  testi- 
mony  of  the  keeper  of  Dover  Castle.  This  controversy  is  stated 
more  at  large  under  the  Barony  of  Maminot.  In  the  Ist  of 
Edw.  III.  he  was  found  to  be  one  of  the  heirs  of  John  Lord 
GifFord  of  Brimmesfield,  viz.  son  of  Alice  (wife  of  Adam  de  Ba- 
vent)  daughter  of  Peter  Scudamore  son  of  Maud  (wife  of  God- 
frey  Scudamore)  one  of  the  aunts  of  John  the  last  Lord  GifFord 
of  Brimmesfield. 

He  was  summoned  to  Parliament  in  the  6th,  7th,  and  8th  of

who  died  s.  p.  1 836,  and  a  daughter  Catharine  Lady  Throckmorton,  who  dying  s.p. 
in  January  1839,  the  representation  devolved  upon  his  nephew  Thomas  Stapleton, 
of  Carlton,  Esq.  who  died  in  July  following,  leaving  Miles  Stapleton,  Esq.  his  son 
and  heir,  who  being  eldest  coheir  of  the  Barony  of  Beaumont,  has  petitioned  the 
Queen  for  a  termination  of  the  abeyance  in  his  favour.  The  consideration  thereof 
is  now  before  the  House  of  Lords,  where  Mr.  Stapleton  has  established  his  de- 
spcnt.  C.  G.  Y.

£dw.  III.  but  not  aflerwards,  ancl  I  am  inclined  to  think  he 
died  about  this  time.  I  have  not  been  able  to  meet  with  any 
inquisition  post  niortem  or  other  record  that  directly  proves  the 
fact,  but  my  conjecture  is  strengthened,  if  not  confirmed,  by  a 
grant  (in  the  31st  Edward  III.  from  the  King  to  Peter  de 
Brewes  and  Joan  his  wife,  of  certain  lands  in  VVitneston,  Asshe- 
hurst,  &c.  in  Sussex,  which  the  record  says,  "  habuimus  ex  dono 
et  feoffamento  Rogeri  Bavent  le  fitz."  ^  Be  this,  however,  as  it 
may,  it  is  certain  that  in  the  13th  of  Edvv.  III.  Roger  Bavent 
conveyed  his  manor  of  Norton-Scudamore  and  other  lands  in 
the  county  of  Wilts  for  term  of  the  life  of  Hawisia  his  wife  to 
Simon  Bishop  of  Ely  and  William  de  Langley,  parson  of  the 
church  of  Ringwood,  who  in  return  bound  themselves  ad  inve- 
niendum  predictce  Hawisiae  et  pueris  suis"  sufficient  sustenance 
according  to  the  value  of  the  said  lands ;  and,  notwithstanding 
that  the  Bishop  and  parson  fulfilled  their  engagements  (as  the 
record  says)  in  such  a  manner  as  that  neither  she,  her  children, 
nor  her  husband,  nor  any  other  person  ever  complained,  from 
the  lOth  of  March  a^.  13  to  the  Monday  next  before  the  feast  of 
St.  Margaret  the  Virgin  in  the  18th  of  Edw.  III.,  they  were  on 
the  latter  day  disseised  of  the  said  manor,  &,c.  by  the  said  Roger 
and  one  W  illiam  de  Kelleseye. « 

On  the  Ist  July  in  the  same  year  he  conveyed  to  the  King  his 
manors  of  Walterstone  in  Ewyas,  and  Colmanstone  inWales; 
his  manors  of  Norton,  Billye,  Withihill,  Fiff  hide,  and  Trowe, 
in  Wilts  and  Dorset;  his  lordship  and  lands  of  Puttefold  and 
Hattesham  in  Surrey ;  his  manors  of  Shibburn  and  Halling  in 
Kent;  40  pounds  rent  out  of  the  manor  of  Braundeston  in 
SufFolk;  the  manors  of  Wilstanston,  Inyngham,  Asshehurst, 
and  Hene  in  Sussex ;  the  reversion  of  the  manor  of  Coumbes 
in  Suffolk  afier  the  death  of  Robert  Hovel,  who  then 
held  it  for  Hfe ;  and  also  all  his  other  lands  and  tenements  in 
England  and  Wales  which  he  then  held  in  demesne,  or  which 
might  come  to  him  by  right  of  inheritance ;  with  the  exception 
only  of  the  manors  of  Chiltington  nnd  Sloghtree  in  the  county 
of  Sussex.  ^ 

This  conveyance  appears  to  have  been  made  only  for  the  pur- 
pose  of  making  the  King  his  heir ;  for  soon  after,  the  lands  were

and  upwards.  s  Hawisia  his  wife  survived  him,  and  was  living 
his  widow  in  the  35th  of  Edw.  III. 

A  pedigree  among  Vincent's  heraldic  coUections  in  the  Col- 
lege  of  Arms,  which  I  see  no  reason  to  question,  states  this  John 
to  have  died  without  issue ;  and  says  that  Eleanor,  wife  of  Wil- 
liam  de  Brewose  (a  younger  son  of  William  Lord  Brewose  of 
Brembre)  was  his  sister  and  heir.  From  this  Eleanor  descended 
Beatrix  de  Brewse  (daughter  of  Feter,  h  son  of  John,  son  of  the 
said  Eleanor)  who,  by  death  of  her  brother  Sir  John  Brewes, 
Knt.  without  issue,  became  heir  of  this  line.  She  married  Sir 
Hugh  Shirley,  who  was  Master  of  the  Hounds  to  King  Henry 
the  Fourth,  and  was  slain,  fighting  on  his  part  at  the  battle  of 
Shrewsbury.

after  "  inheritance,"  add  hy  way  ofnote^ 

I  am  of  opinion  that  the  first  Nicholas  St.  Maur  was  sum- 
moned  to  Parliament  by  reason  of  liis  marriage  with  the  eldest 
of  the  two  daughters  and  coheirs  of  the  Lord  Zouche  of  Ashby, 
as  was  also  (in  my  opinion)  Robert  de  Holand  by  reason  of  his 
marriage  with  the  other  daughter  and  coheir.  Lord  Zouclie 
died  a".  7  Edw.  H  and  both  St.  Maur  and  Hohind  were  suni- 
nioned  for  the  first  time  tlie  next  year  following  his  death;  and 
what  confirms  me  in  that  opinion  is,  that  Thomas  St.  Maur,  the 
son  and  heir  of  Nicholas  byhis  first  wife,  and  who,  if  the  dignity 
had  been  of  liis  father's  inheritance  would  no  doubt  have  been 
summoned  when  he  came  of  *age,  though  he  survived  his  father 
upwards  of  forty  years,  was  never  summoned  atall.  It  is  true  that 
Niclioias,  the  son  of  the  second  wife  was  not  summoned  till  25 
Edw.  III.  though  he  must  have  been  of  full  age  longbefore;  but 
this  tends,  I  tliink,  rather  to  confirm  tlian  confute  my  opinion, 
because  his  mother  was  alive  (hning  all  that  period,  and  tliat 
which  was  her  inlieritance,  though  it  niight  be  enjoyed  by  her 
husband  during  his  hfe,  could  not  pass  to  her  son  till  her  death.

P.  141,  1.  20,  qfier  «  Wilts,"  leave  out  all  that  foUows  in 
Dugdale,  and  copy  from  Longmate's  edition  of  Collins,  vol.  v. 
383,  line  27,  making  a  note  at  the  most  proper  place,  that-  the 
Thomas  Lord  Lawarre,  who  succeeded  Richard,  was  constantly 
summoncd  by  his  father's  Christian  name  till  1  Hen.  VHL, 
when  the  error  appears  to  have  been  rectified. 

At  p,  392  (of  Longmate)  line  12,  a/ter  "  Berkeley,"  make  a 
long  note  thus : 

I  think  it  proper  here  to  revert  to  the  period  of  the  death  of 
Thomas  Lord  Lawarre,  great-uncle  to  this  Thomas,  in  155+,  for 
the  purpose  of  offering  a  few  observations  upon  tliis  new  creation 
of  the  title  in  WiHiam,  and  the  restoration,  as  it  is  called,  of  tlie 
son  of  Wiliiam  to  the  ancient  place  and  precedency  of  his  an- 
cestors.  The  precise  date  of  this  new  creation  is  no  where  men- 
tioned  with  ceriainiy.  I  have  never  seen  any  leiters  patent  for 
it,  and  am  of  opinion  that  none  ever  passed;  William  was  sum- 
moned  to  ParHament  for  the  first  time  in  a°.  13  Eliz.  1571,  and 
placed  as  the  junior  Baron,  and  during  the  remainder  of  his  hfe, 
more  than  twenty-five  years,  continued  to  be  ranked  according 
to  that  date;  an  undeniable  proof  that  he  was  considered  as 
holding  his  dignity  by  a  new  creation,  and  not  as  the  right  heir 
of  the  ancient  Barony :  neither  was  he  the  right  heir  according 
to  any  of  the  known  rules  that  govern  the  descent  of  Baronies 
by  writ.  According  to  those  rules  the  Barony  fell  into  abey- 
ance  at  the  death  of  his  uncle  in  1554,  and  was  in  the  same 
state  at  the  moment  when  the  ancient  place  was  adjudged  to 
the  son  of  William.  William  was  certainly  heir  male  to  his 
uncle,  and  he  is  expressly  so  described  in  the  Act  of  Restitution, 
but  he  was  not  heir  general,  and  therefore  I  am  at  a  loss  to  dis- 
cover  the  principle  upon  which  that  judgment  rested  which  gave 
the  rank  of  the  ancient  Barony  to  a  person  who  could  not  pre- 
tend  to  be  the  legal  representative  of  die  ancient  Barons.  I 
shall  endeavour  to  explaiQ  the  exact  situation  of  the  ancient

Barony  at  the  time  of  tlie  death  of  Thomas  in  1554,  and  I  think 
I  cannot  tlothis  more  inielligibly  than  by  copying  a  Case  drawn 
up  (in  ao.  9  EHz.  four  years  previous  to  the  new  creation)  by  Sir 
Adrian  Poynings,  whose  issue  in  right  of  his  wife  had,  as  he 
thought,  fair  pretensions  to  the  dignity. 

The  Heralds  of  that  day,  however,  were  of  a  different 
opinion ;  but  I  shall  leave  them  to  speak  for  themselves,  pre- 
mising  only,  if  the  reader  should  discover  that  in  that  state- 
ment  some  of  the  children  of  Thomas  the  father  are  omitted, 
that  it  was  not  necessary  for  the  purpose  of  obtaining  an  official 
opinion  upon  the  question  to  insert  more  than  are  there  taken 
notice  of. 

Here  copy  the  case  of  Sir  Andrew  Poynings.  y 
The  issue  of  the  marriage  with  Sir  Andrew  Poynings  was 
ihree  daughters  and  coheirs,  Elizabeth,  Anne,  and  Mary. 

AucHER  Fitz-Henry  (not  in  Dugdale). 

Aucher  Fitz-Henry  had  married  Joan,  one  of  the  two  daugh- 
ters  and  coiieirs  of  John  de  Bella-aqua  by  Laderina  his  wife, 
one  of  the  four  sisters  and  coheirs  of  Peter  de  Brus  of  Skel- 
ton ;  and  in  right  of  this  marriage  he  possessed  »  one  eighth 
part  of  the  Barony  of  Brus  of  Skelton,  one  eighth  and  one 
third  of  another  Barony  which  was  attached  to  that  of  Brus, 
and  one  eighth  of  the  moiety  of  the  Barony  of  Lancaster,  after 
tiie  death  of  tlie  mother  of  tlie  said  Peter  de  Brus.  He  was 
summoned  to  Parliament  from  2  to  19  Edw.  11.^  In  5  Edw.  IL 
he  paid  iOs.  for  his  relief  of  the  bailiwick  of  Waltham  forest 
descended  to  him  from  iiis  father,  and  in  6  Edw.  II.  15/.  6s.  6d. 
for  his  relief  of  the  lands  of  his  said  wife.  He  died  about  13 
Edw.  III.  and  Henry  his  son  was  found  to  he  next  heir  of  both 
father  and  mother,  and  40  years  old.  <=  This  Henry  in  the 
same  year  settled  lands  in  Fobbing  and  Stanford,  in  Essex, 
upon  himself  and  Beatrice  liis  wife,  their  heirs  and  assigns  for 
ever.  In  16  Edw.  III.  he  paid  the  same  sum  of  15/.  6s.  6d.  for 
relief  of  the  lands  of  his  mother.J  In  18  Edw.  III.  he  enfeoffed

tinued  flourishinj;  in  that  neighbourhood  at  the  last  Heraldic

Warin  le  Vernon  was  seised  of  the  entire  Barpny  of  Ship- 
brooke,  and  held  it  during  his  lifetime — he  left  three  daughters 
lawfully  begotten,  who  all  three  married  and  had  issue.  But 
the  said  Warin  had  a  brother  who  survived  him,  named  Ralph, 
who  was  Rector  of  the  church  of  Kegworth.  This  Ralph,  on 
the  death  of  his  brother,  entered  into  and  took  possession  of 
the  Barony.  The  husbands  of  the  three  daughters  with  their 
wives  purchased  a  writ  of  the  King,  and  for  a  long  while  main- 
tained  a  suit  against  the  uncle.  At  length  it  was  agreed  be- 
tween  them  that  the  inheritance  of  the  said  Barony  should  be 
divided  into  two  parts,  whereof  one  part  should  remain  to  said 
Ralph  and  his  heirs  for  ever,  with  the  capital  manor  of  Ship- 
brooke,  performing  rent,  service,  and  suit  to  the  Earl  of  Chester, 
with  all  otlier  services  belonging  to  the  said  W^arin  ;  and  the 
said  Ralph  accordingly  did  perform  all  said  services  during 
his  life,  and  he  enfeoffed  Ralph  his  son,  and  his  heirs  for  ever; 
who  have  performed  and  do  perform  all  said  services.  And  the 
other  half  of  the  said  Barony,  with  the  capital  manor  of  Left- 
wich,  should  remain  to  the  said  three  husbands  and  their  wives,

REGISTER    OF    MARRIAGES,    IN    WESTMINSTER    ABBEY. 

From  the  title  prefixed  to  the  earliest  existing  Register  of  the  Co 
legiate  Church  of  St.  Peter,  Westminster,  it  raay  be  inferred  that  the 
former  registers  disappeared  during  the  distraction  of  the  Coramon- 
wealth,  as  the  "  VVeddings,  Christenings,  and  Burials,"  are  said  to  be 
"  such  as  can  be  found  in  imperfect  books,  and  such  as  have  been  care- 
fuU}'  taken  entries  of  since  the  happy  Restoration."  The  following 
entries  refer  to  Marriages  solemnized  between  1655  and  1705.  Those 
of  a  period  anterior  to  the  Restoration  occur  only  in  the  years  1655  and 
1656.  They  are  transcribed  from  a  MS.  of  the  Miscellaneons  Collec- 
tion  of  the  College  of  Arms,  which  contains  also  the  Christenings  and 
Burials.  In  the  same  volume  are  extracts  from  the  Registers  of  St.

and  St.  Giles,  Cripplegate.

Memorandum.  Mr.  John  Pelling,  Batchellor  of  Divinity, 
Parson  of  Trowbridg  and  Bath,  a  worthy  reverend  preacher  of 
the  word  of  God,  and  Chaplayn  to  the  King's  Maiesty,  was 
buried  in  the  new  church  of  Bath  aforesaid  on  the  north  side  of 
the  Bishop's  Tumbe,  close  to  the  grave,  the  nineteenth  day  of 
February  1620  (21).« 

•  John  Pelling,  of  Magdalen  CoUege,  Oxford,  B.A.  1583,  B.D.  1597,  was  insti- 
tuted  to  the  rectory  of  Bath  in  1590,  and  to  the  rectory  of  Trowbridge  in  1595, 
to  which  latter  he  was  presented  by  Edward  Earl  of  Hertford.  He  was  buried 
in  the  abbey  church  at  Bath,  which  had  been  recently  restored  from  a  state  of 
almost  utter  ruin  by  the  beneficence  of  Bishop  Montague,  and  many  other  indivi- 
duals,  who  had  been  instigated  to  the  pious  work  by  Mr.  Pelling.  His  grave  is  in 
the  north  aisle  of  the  nave  near  to  Bishop  Montague's  tomb ;  and  to  shew  the  re- 
spect  of  the  city  for  hb  serviees,  the  Corporation  in  1621  erected  a  monument  to 
his  memory  against  the  north  wall.  This  monument,  which  contained  a  bust  of 
the  deceased  within  an  oval  stone  frarae,  something  in  the  style  of  Shakspeare's 
monument  at  Stratford,  has  been,  within  the  last  three  or  four  years,  most  sacri- 
legiously  destroyed,  with  a  number  of  others  of  ancient  date.  Some  of  the  inscrip- 
tions  have  been  preserved,  and  among  the  rest  the  foUowing  to  the  memory  of  Mr. 
PeUing :—

THE    EARLDOM    OF    GLAMORGAN. 

Addendumfor  Dugdale. 

Amongst  the  titles  attributed  to  Edward  Somerset,  second 
Marquis  of  Worcester,  and  subsequently  to  the  Dukes  of  Beau- 
fort,  are  those  of  "  Earl  of  Glamorgan,  Viscount  Grosmont  and 
Baron  Beavfort  of  Caldecot"  of  which  Dugdale  does  not  take 
any  notice.  Collins,  in  his  account  of  the  Dukes  of  Beaufort, 
when  speaking  of  Edward  second  Marquis  of  Worcester,  who 
succeeded  to  that  dignity  in  1646,  foUowing  the  statement 
of  Sandford  in  his  History  (page  357),  says,  "  he  was  by  King 
Ciiarles  constituted  Lord  Lieutenant  of  North  Wales,  who  di- 
rected  several  letters  to  this  Edward  in  the  lifetime  of  his  father, 
by  the  title  of  Eari  of  Glamorgan,  whicli  title  lie  usually  bore, 
there  then  remaining  in  the  Signet  Office  a  bill  under  the 
lloyal  Sign  ISlanual  at  Oxford  (if  a  patent  did  not  pass  the 
Great  Seal  thereupon)  in  order  to  his  l)eing  created  Earl  of 
Glamorgan  and  Baron  Beaufort,  of  Caldecot  Castle,  in  the 
county  of  Monmouth." »  Sir  Harris  Nicohis,  however,  in  his 
Synopsis  of  the  Peerage,  under  the  title  of  "  Glamorgan,"

ever,  of  the  rccorded  docqucts  at  the  Signet  office,  no  notice  of  any  such  bill  was 
to  be  found. 


THE  EARLDOM  OF  GLAMORGAN.         191 

after  remarking  that  these  Dignities  are  generally  considered  to 
have  been  created  by  King  Charles  the  First  in  the  year  1644, 
adds,  "  but  great  doubt  exists  whether  the  patent  ever  passed  the 
Great  Seal."  Diigdale  takes  no  notice  of  any  such  creation, 
whilst  Beatson  says  the  patent  was  cancelled  in  1660,  and  Dale, 
in  his  Catalogue  of  Nobility,  does  not  attribute  these  titles  to 
the  Duke  of  Beaufort,  the  descendant  of  the  said  Edward  in 
1697.  The  authority  on  which  the  titles  in  question  appear  to 
have  been  assigned  to  the  Dukes  of  Beaufort,  is  the  circum- 
stance  of  Charles  the  First  having  directed  several  letters  to 
Edward  Somerset,  above  mentioned,  by  the  title  of  Earl  of 
Glamorgan;  and,  in  a  Commission,  no  less  remarkable  than 
illegal,  dated  in  1644,''  granting  liim  power  to  fill  up  certain 
blank  patents  of  creation  to  every  dignity  from  a  Marquis  to  a 
Baronet,  he  is  styled,  "  Edward  Somerset,  alias  Plantagenet, 
Lord  Herbert,  Baron  Beaufort  of  Caldecote,  Grismond,  Chep- 
stow,  Ragland,  and  Gower,  Earl  of  Glamorgan,  son  and  heir 
apparent  of  our  entirely  beloved  cousin  Henry  Earl  and  Mar- 
quis  of  Worcester ; "  which  patent  was,  in  consequence  of  a 
motion  in  the  House  of  Lords  after  the  Restoration,  delivered 
up,  from  its  being  deemed  "  in  prejudice  to  the  Peers ;  "  and 
which  is  probably  the  cause  of  Beatson's  statement,  "  that  the 
patent  of  creation  to  the  dignities  of  Earl  of  Glamorgan  and 
Baron  Beaufort  was  cancelled  in  1660."«

'  Lords'  Joumals.  The  subject  was  brought  before  Parliament  by  the  Marquis 
of  Hertford  18  Aug.  1661,  as  "  a  patent  granted  to  the  Marquis  ofWorcester, 
which  is  a  prejudice  to  the  Peers  ;''  and  the  Marquis  of  Dorchester,  on  the  23rd, 
reported,  that  the  Marquis  of  Worcester  confessed  to  their  Lordships  that  a  patent 
was  made  and  left  in  his  hands  by  the  King  to  create  him  Duke  of  Somerset, 
upon  certain  conditions,  which  were  never  yet  performed  ;  that  he  hath  made  no 
use  of  it :  that  the  said  patent  was  in  the  hands  of  his  son  the  Lord  Herbert,  and 
that  his  Lordship  was  willing  to  deliver  it  up  to  his  Majesty.  On  the  3rd  Sep- 
tember  Lord  Arundell  of  W^ardour  acquainted  the  House,  that  the  Marqois  of 
Worcester  had  delivered  up  the  patent  to  his  Majesty  for  the  Dukedom  of 
Somerset. 

The  discussion  upon  this  patent  probably  gave  rise  to  the  introduction  of  a  bill, 
which  was  read  a  iirst  time  on  the  5th  September,  entitled,  an  Act  for  preventing 
inconveniences  which  may  arise  by  patents  and  grants  made,  or  pretended  to 
be  made,  during  the  late  troubles  ;  which  passed  the  House  on  the  following  day, 
and  was  sent  to  the  Commons,  together  with  a  bill  for  restoring  the  Marquis  of 
Hertford  to  the  Dukedom  of  Somerset.     On  the  8tb,  the  bill  not  having  been  re- 


192  THE    EARLDOM    OF    GLAMORGAN. 

The  editor  of  the  Synopsis  further  remarks,  that  "  another 
Dignity  attributed  to  the  Dukes  of  Beaufort,  is  the  Viscountcy 
of  Grosmont,"  but  adds,  it  has  baffled  liis  research  to  discover 
the  source  whence  that  title  is  derived.  Dale  takes  no  notice 
of  any  such  dignity ;  and  the  only  trace  of  a  title  at  all  similar 
is  that  recited  in  the  Commission  just  noticed,  wherein  he  is- 
styled  Baron  Beaufort,  of  Caldecot,  Grismond,  Chepstow,  Rag- 
land,  and  Gower."  ^ 

It  is  singular  that  such  doubt  and  obscurity  should  exist  re- 
specting  the  grant  of  the  Earldom  of  Glamorgan  to  a  member 
of  so  distinguished  a  family.  On  reference  to  the  original 
Docquet  Book  of  grants  made  by  King  Charles  at  Oxford,  com- 
mencing  in  December,  in  the  18th  year  of  his  reign,  1642,  and 
ending  in  June  1646,^  no  notice  whatever  occurs  of  the  grant  of 
such  a  patent  among  the  numerous  grants  of  Dignities  which 
are  there  recorded.  If  the  patent  passed,  it  was  in  all  proba- 
bility  between  the  16th  April  1643,  when  a  commission  was 
issued  to  him,  in  which  he  is  called  "  Edward  Lord  Herbert, 
son  and  heir  to  the  Lord  Marquis  of  Worcester,"^  and  the  Ist 
April  1644,  when  he  is  styled  "  Edward  Somerset,  alias  Plan- 
tagenet,  Lord  Herbert,  Baron  Beaufort  of  Caldecote,  Grismond, 
Chepstow,  Ragland,  and  Gower,  Earl  of  Glamorgan,"  in  the 
before  mentioned  commission  bearing  that  date. 

Among  the  docquets  recorded  in  the  office  of  the  clerk  of  the 
patents  there  is  a  protection  royal  granted  to  him,  dated  on 
the  13th  November  1645,  wherein  he  is  called  "  Edward  Lord 
Herbert  Earl  of  Glamorgan,"  S  and  in  a  message  to  Parliament 
from  King  Charles,  under  his  sign  manual,  and  dated  at  Oxford 
29  January  foUowing,  disclaiming  any  knowledge  of  the  Earl 
of  Glamorgan's  treaty  with  the  rebels  in  Ireland,  wherewith 
he  was  charged  and  arrested  upon  suspicion  of  high  treason,  he 
is  spoken  of  by  that  title.     The  message  is  entered  at  length 

tumed,  a  message  was  sent  to  remind  the  Commons,  and  on  the  lOth  a  message 
was  sent  from  the  Commons  to  acquaint  their  Lordships  that  the  bill  had  been 
twice  read,  and  stood  committed.  The  bill  of  restoring  the  Dukedom  of  Somerset 
to  the  Marquisate  of  Hertford  passed,  and  received  the  royal  assent  on  the  13th  ; 
but  no  further  notice  appears  respecting  the  other.

being  accused  by  the  Lord  George  Digby  of  high  treason.  > 

On  the  Ist  October  1646,  there  is  an  order  upon  the  Lords 
Journal  that  a  pass  be  granted  to  the  Lady  Herbert,  Countess 
of  Glamorgan,  into  Ireland  with  thirty  of  her  menial  ser- 
vants,  ^  &c 

That  he  was  considered  Earl  of  Glamorgan  after  the  Resto- 
ration  seems  evident  from  a  royal  warrant  under  the  sign 
manual  of  King  Charles  the  Second  on  6th  April  1661,  wherein 
his  Majesty,  after  reciting  the  descent  of  John  (Granville)  Earl 
of  Batli,  declares  "  that  in  case  the  Earldom  of  Glamorgan 
should  at  any  time  fall  into  the  hands  of  the  Crown  during 
our  reign  for  want  of  heirs  male  of  the  present  Marquess  by 
his  Lady  now  living,  as  we  are  informed  the  same  ts  settled  by 
our  Royal  Father,  of  blessed  memory,  we  will  not  again  confer 
the  said  Earldom  upon  any  other  family,  but  restore  the  same 
to  that  of  the  Granvilles,  by  creating  the  said  present  Earl  of

John  Earl  of  Bathe,  Our  Grome  of  the  Stole,  and  First  Gentleman  of  Onr  Bed-

Lord  of  Gloucester  and  Glamorgan,  in  the  raignes  of  King  William  the  Conqueror, 
King  William  Rufus,  and  King  Henry  the  First,  and  who  was  the  son  and  heir  of 
the  Lord  Hamon  dentatus  Earl  of  Corboile,  and  Lord  of  Thorigny  and  Granrille

Our  Self  do  ftom  the  eldest  of  Rollo  the  first  Duke  of  Normandy,  Our  com*on 
ancestor.  In  considerac'on  whereof,  and  of  the  many  eminent  services  performed 
unto  Us  by  the  said  Earl,  We  are  graciously  pleased  to  promise  and  declare,  That 
in  case  the  Earldom  of  Glamorgan  should  at  any  time  fall  into  the  hands  of  tbe 
Crown,  during  our  reigne,  for  want  of  heirs  males  of  the  present  Marquess  by  bis 
Lady  now  living,  as  We  are  informed  the  same  is  setled  by  Our  Royal  Fatber  of 


194        THE  EARLDOM  OF  GLAMORGAN. 

From  the  expression  "  heirs  male  of  the  present  Marquis  by 
his  Lady  now  living,  as  we  are  informed  the  same  is  settled  by 
our  royal  father ; "  it  would  seem  that  the  limitation  of  the 
patent  was  to  the  heirs  male  of  his  body  by  his  second  wife, 
Margaret,  second  daughter  of  Henry  0'Brien,  Earl  of  Thomond, 
who  died  without  surviving  issue  26  Juiy  1681.™  The  Mar- 
quis  died  3  April  1667,  and  was  buried  with  great  funeral 
solemnity  at  Ragland  on  the  19th  of  the  same  month.  In  the 
funeral  certificate  recorded  in  the  College  of  Arms  and  attested 
by  his  son  and  successor,  the  Earldom  of  Glamorgan  is  attri- 
buted  to  him  with  his  other  titles.  Henry,  his  only  son,  third 
Marquis  of  Worcester,  was  installed  Knight  of  the  Garter  in 
1672 ;  but  the  titles  in  question  are  not  introduced  upon  his 

blessed  memory,  We  will  not  again  conferr  the  said  Earldome  upon  any  other 
family,  but  restore  the  same  to  that  of  the  Granvilles,  by  creating  the  said  present 
Earle  of  Bathe  also  Earl  of  Glamorgan,  to  remain  to  him  and  his  heires  males, 
and  for  default  of  such  issue,  to  the  heirs  males  of  Sir  Bevill  Granville  his  father. 
And  we  are  further  graciously  pleased,  for  the  considerations  aforesaid,  to  allow 
and  permit  the  said  Earle  of  Bathe  to  use  also  those  other  titles  of  Hono',  as  Earle 
of  Corboile,  Thorigny,  and  Granville,  as  was  formerly  done  by  his  ancestors.  And 
though  the  same  hath  been  discontinued  of  late  by  some  of  his  late  ancestors,  yet 
we  do  hereby  give  fuU  power  and  authority  to  the  said  Earle  of  Bathe,  not  only  for 
himself  and  his  posterity  to  use  the  same,  but  in  case  he  shall  hereafter  erect  in  me- 
mory  of  his  father,  or  any  other  his  famous  ancestors  any  monument  or  inscription 
concerning  him  or  them,  touse  the  name,  stile,  and  dignity  of  Earl  of  Corboile, 
Thorigny,  and  Granville,  in  as  full  and  ample  manner  as  his  said  ancestors  for- 
merly  used  before  Normandy  was  lost  from  the  Crown  of  England.  The  said 
loyal  family  of  the  Granvilles  being  then  also  sufFerers  with  the  Crown,  and  then 
dispossessed  for  their  loyalty  out  of  their  said  inheritance  of  the  said  Earldom  and 
Lordships  within  Our  said  antient  Dutchy  of  Normandy  :  Whereof  we  have 
thought  fitt  at  this  time  to  make  this  declaration  of  Our  Royal  will  and  pleasure, 
aswell  in  justice  towards  a  family  so  noble  and  antient  by  birth,  and  so  eminently 
deserving  for  their  virtue  and  loyalty  to  Our  Self  and  Our  Royal  ancestors  from 
the  Conquest  unto  this  present  day ;  as  also  for  a  perpetual  example  and  encou- 
ragement  to  others  to  imitate  the  same,  com'anding  all  persons  whatsoever  who 
are  and  may  be  concerned  to  take  notice  hereof.  Given  at  our  Court  at  Whitehal

John  Earl  of  Bath,  for  whom  King  Charles  had  destined  the 
the  Elarldom  of  Glamorgan,  if  it  fell  into  the  hands  of  the 
Crown,  survived  the  royal  monarch  (dying  in  the  year  1701) 
without  having  received  any  grant  of  the  Earldom,  from  which 
it  may  perhaps  be  inferred  that  the  limitations  of  the  supposed 
patent  were  not  confined  to  the  heirs  male  of  the  Marquis  by 
his  second  wife. 

In  1712  Simon  Segar  published  his  Catalogue  of  the  various 
creations,  entitled,  "  Honores  Anglicani,"  where,  in  his  list  of 
Earls,  he  states  that  Edward  Somerset  was  created  Earl  of 
Glamorgan  21  Car.  I.  1645,  P  and  under  Viscounts  says,  he  was 
created  Viscount  Grosmont  and  Caldecote  in  Wales  21  Car.  I. 
1645,  and  Earl  of  Glamorgan.  ^ 

In  1713  this  nobleman*s  great-grandson,  Henry  Duke  of 
Beaufort,  was  installed  as  Knight  of  the  Garter,  when  tlie  titles 
of  "  Earl  of  Glamorgan  and  Baron  Beaufort  of  Caldecot "  ap- 
pear  among  the  others  upon  his  stall  plate  at  Windsor.  ^ 

In  1801,  Henry  fiflh  Duke,  who  was  elected  a  Knight  of  the 
Garter  in  1786,  was  installed,  and  upon  his  stall  plate,  among 
other  titles  are  those  of  "  Earl  of  Glamorgan,  Viscount  Gros- 
mont  and  Baron  Beaufort  of  Caldecote,"  s  and  they  also  occur 
on  the  plate  of  Henry  Charles  sixth  Duke,  who  was  inslalled  in 
1805. 

Upon  what  ground  Garter  Anstis  introduced  the  titles  of 
"  Earl  of  Glamorgan  and  Baron  Beaufort"  in  1713,  when  he 
did  not  find  them  upon  the  plate  of  the  second  Marquis  of 
Worcester  in  1672,  does  not  appear;  but  the  insertion  of  the 
dignity  of  "  Viscount  Grosmont,"  by  Garter  Heard  in  1801 
and  1805,  would  seem  clearly  to  have  arisen  from  inadvertence.

EXTRACTS  FROM  THE  TOPOGRAPHICAL  COLLECTIONS  OF  SIR 
HENRT  CALTHORPE,  KNT.  TEMP.  CHARLES  I.  RELATING  TO 
SEVERAL   PARISHES    IN   THE    COUNTY   OF    NORFOLK. 

The  general  correctness  of  Messrs.  Blomefield  and  Parkin,  the  Nor- 
folk  historians,  is  commonly  admitted.  Errors  and  omissions  are,  how- 
ever,  from  a  variety  of  causes,  unavoidable  in  such  works,  and  it  may  be 
considered  a  commendable  service  to  correct  the  one  and  supply  the 
other,  whenever  an  opportunity  occurs.  Under  this  impression,  I  have 
transcribed  a  manuscript  account  of  manorial  and  other  property,  in 
some  parishes  in  that  county,  which,  npon  comparison  with  their  state- 
ments,  will,  in  some  cases,  be  found  to  differ,  and  in  others  to  afford 
additional  information.  The  MS.  in  question  was  collected  and  ar- 
ranged  by  Sir  Henry  Calthorpe,  of  Ampton,  in  Suffolk, »  an  eminent 
lawyer  in  the  early  part  of  the  seventeenth  century,  from  original  docu- 
ments  in  his  own  possessiou,  ha\ing  been  an  owner  of  property  in  most 
of  those  parishes  to  which  his  coUections  relate. 

A.  P. 

BURGH    ST.    MARGARET'S, 

is  a  parish  in  the  hundred  of  East  and  West  Flegg. 

**  Sir  Reyner  de  Burgo  was  owner  of  this  mannor  in  the  be- 
ginninge  of  the  reigne  of  Henrye  the  Third,  for  by  a  deede  with- 
out  date  it  appeareth  that  there  was  land  claymed  att  his  Court 
of  Burgh  ;  and  from  Sir  Reyner  de  Burgo  did  the  same  mannor 
discend  unto  Sir  WilHam  de  Burgo  as  his  sonne  and  heire;  and, 
as  I  conceive,  the  same  mannor  did  discend  from  Sir  William 
de  Burgo  unto  Nicholas  his  sonne  ;  for  I  doe  finde  by  a  deede 
without  date  that  Nicholas  was  the  sonne  of  WiUiam,  and  I  doe 
finde  noe  other  sonns  but  him,  and  from  him  did  the  same 

*  Sir  Henry  Calthorpe  was  saccessiyely  Common  Serjeant  and  Recorder  of  the 
City  of  London,  Solicitor-General  to  Queen  Henrietta-Maria,  and  Attomey  of 
the  Court  of  Wards  and  Liveries.  He  was  the  author  of  "  Proposals  for  regti- 
lating  the  Law,"  and  of  a  Tolume  of  Reports  relatiTe  to  the  Cnstoms  of  London. 
A  memoir  of  him  and  of  his  family  will  be  found  in  the  Gentleman'a  Magazine  for 
November  1831,  rol.  CI.  ii.  406. 


198  SIR    H.    CALTHORPE*S    COLLECTIONS. 

mannor  discend,  as  I  conceive,  unto  Sir  Walter  de  Burgo, 
whon^e  I  doe  finde  by  deede  without  date,  and  in  the  beginninge 
of  Edw.  I.  reigne,  lo  be  owner  of  lande  in  Burgh." 

The  foUowing  extracts,  selected  from  various  original  docu- 
ments,  will  confirm  the  above  statement,  and  at  the  same  time, 
correct  the  one  given  by  Mr.  Parkin,  concerning  the  members 
of  this  family,  who  were  owners  of  this  lordship  : — 

"  By  an  agreement  betwixt  Reyner  de  Burgh  and  the  Ladye 
Mabill  his  mother,  and  Sir  Warren  of  Rollesbye,  and  Sir  Ro- 
bert  de  Burgh,  Reyner,  with  the  consent  and  graunt  of  the 
Ladye  Mabill  his  mother,  doth  demise  unto  the  said  Warren 
and  Robert  his  sheepecourse  in  Wintell  neere  unto  the  towne 
of  Stokesbie,  with  the  appurtenances,  and  with  the  fouldage  in 
the  fields  att  the  goeinge  out  from  the  marshe,  att  the  Annun- 
ciacon  for  4  yeares ;  and  this  in  consideracon  of  eight  marks 
given." 

"  William  of  Otum  of  Clippisbie  doth  make  a  feoffment  unto 
Mabill  of  Burgh  and  Reyner  her  sonne  and  their  heirs,  of  three 
roodes  of  lande  in  Burgh,  perticulerlie  abuttailed,  to  hold  of 
him  and  his  heirs  for  their  homage  and  semce,  and  lOs.  given 
in  earnest,  and  rendringe  yearelie  att  Micfeas  ]</.  for  all  customs 
and  services,  savinge  the  service  unto  the  kinge,  vizt.  for  everie 
xxs.  ofscutage  ob. ;  and  soe,  if  more  more,  if  lesse  lesse." 

"42  Hen.  IIL  An  agreement  betwixt  Sir  WilUam  de  Burgh 
on  the  one  parte,  and  the  Ladie  Joane,  which  was  the  wife  of 
Sir  Reyner  de  Burgh,  of  the  other  parte,  whereby  Sir  William 
doth  give  recompence  of  lande  in  Ailmerton  and  the  townes  ad- 
joyninge  for  lande,  rent,  and  services,  whereof  she  was  dowable 
in  Burgh." 

"  Richard  of  Clippesbie  doth  enfeoffe  Nicholas,  the  sonne  of 
William  de  Burgo,  and  his  heirs,  of  one  acre  and  half  a  roode 
of  lande,  to  hould  of  him  and  liis  heires  by  vjrf.  a  ycar,  for  all 
rent  and  services." 

"16  Edw.  I.  Sir  Thomas  Abigenilla  doth  release  unto  Sir 
Walter  de  Burgo  and  his  heirs  all  his  right  and  estate  which  he 
had  formerlie  in  twelve  acres  of  lande,  in  Orbye,  Clippisbie,  and 
Burgh,  by  the  graunt  of  Sir  Walter  for  term  of  his  life." 

The  following  selection  will  shew  the  other  members  of  this 
family  who  had  an  interest  in  the  parish  of  Burgh  :— 

"  Thomas  de  Burgo  doth  enfeofte  Reyner  de  Burgo  and  his 


BURGH  ST.  MARGARET*S,  NORFOLK.       199 

heirs  of  two  acres  of  lande  in  Bui^h,  rendring  4</.  yearelie  att 
Michas  for  all  rente  and  services." 

"  Richard,  the  sonne  of  Robert  de  Bellus,  doth  graunt  unto 
Sir  Reginald  de  Burgo  and  his  heirs,  Robert  the  sonne  of  Allen 
and  others  that  were  his  villeines  and  neife,  with  all  their 
sequell,  to  hould  of  him  and  his  heirs,  rendring  unto  him  and 
his  heirs  \d.  yearly  for  all  services  and  demande  at  Miclias.*' 

"  Henry  Castome,  the  sonne  of  Harvie,  doth  enfeoffe  John  de 
Burgo,  parson,  and  his  heirs,  of  one  roode  of  lande,  to  hould  of 
him  and  his  heires,  rendringunto  him  and  his  heires  Bd.  yearelie 
for  all  services  and  demande." 

"  An  affreement  betwixt  Henrie  of  the  Willowes  and  John 
parson  of  Burgh,  whereby  Henrie  doth  demise  unto  the  said 
John  two  acres  of  lande  in  Clippesbie  for  10  yeares,  to  beginn 
after  the  death  of  the  Bisshopp  of  Durham." 

**  Thomas  de  Burgo  de  Fishby  doth  enfeofFe  William  the 
sonne  of  Reyner  de  Burgo,  and  his  heirs,  of  five  acres  of  lande  in 
Burgh,  rendringe  yearlie  to  him  and  his  heirs  i]d.  yearlie  at  the 
feast  of  Michaell." 

'^  Wiiliam,  the  sonne  of  Roger  of  Ormebye,  doth  enfeoffe  Wil- 
Ham  the  sonne  of  Sir  Reyner  de  Burgh,  and  his  heirs,  of  three 
acres  of  lande  in  Burgh,  and  doth  graunt  Nicholas  the  sonne  of 
Osbert  Hikili,  with  all  his  sequell,  unto  him  and  his  heirs,  ren- 
dringe  yearlie  unto  him  and  his  heires  a  root  of  ginger  att 
Michas." 

It  appears  the  de  Bosville's  of  Newton  near  Castleacre,  were 
the  ancestors  of  the  Burgo  family,  and  benefactors  to  the  priory 
at  Castleacre.  In  the  reign  of  Henry  II.  or  Richard  I.  Reyner 
de  Burgo  was  vicar  of  that  parish. 

"  In  the  5  Edw.  II.  Joane  of  Claveringe,  Ladie  of  Burgh, 
doth  enfeoffe  Peter  Buskyn  and  his  heirs,  of  the  marshe,  called 
Okeholme,  lyenge  betwixt  the  comon  bank  of  Weybridge  on 
the  south,  and  the  comon  marshe  of  Clippisbie  of  the  north,  to 
hould  of  the  chiefe  lorde  by  the  accustomed  rente  and  services." 

"  In  tlie  Rolle  of  9  Edw.  III.  1  finde  that  Joane,  the  daugh- 
ter  of  Sir  Walter  de  Burgo,  solde  the  reversion,  and  Sir  Ed- 
mond  de  Ufford,  43  Edw.  III.  was  owner  of  the  manor." 

"15  Ric.  II.  Sir  Robert  de  Ufford  doth  enfeoffe  Robert 
Walle,  the  sonne  of  Allen  Walle  of  Willowby,  and  his  heirs, 
of  one  niessuage,  two  acres,  a  roode  and  a  halfe  of  lande  in 


200  siR  H.  calthorpe's  collections. 

Willowby  perticulerlie  abuttailed,  to  hold  of  the  chiefe  lorde, 
rendringe  yearlie  unto  Sir  Robert  Ufford  and  his  heires  viije/. 
att  Michas  or  Easter,  with  a  clawse  of  distresse." 

"  9  £dw.  IV.  I  doe  finde  that  the  Lord  Dacres  was  owner  of 
the  mannor  of  Burgh  St.  Margarett." 

This  Joane  of  Clavering,  and  Joane  the  daughter  of  Sir 
Walter  de  Burgo,  was,  we  presume,  the  same  individual ;  who 
was  heiress  to  her  father,  and  wife  of  Sir  Alexander  de  Claver- 
ing,  eldest  son  of  Sir  Robert  Fitz-Roger.  At  the  time  of  the 
said  reversionaiy  grant,  she  was  a  widow,  and  the  person  to 
whom  the  grant  was  made,  Sir  John  de  Clavering  of  Horsford 
in  Norfolk,  Sir  Alexander's  younger  brother.  Sir  John  de 
Clavering  left  issue  an  only  daughter,  Eva,  whose  second  hus- 
band  was  Sir  Thomas  de  Ufford,  by  whom  she  had  three  sons, 
and  of  whom  the  above  Sir  Edmund  de  Ufford  was  the  youngest, 
and  inherited  this  lordship.  He  married  Sibilla,  daughter  of 
Sir  Simon  Pierpoint  of  Henstead,  in  Suffolk,  and  died  in  1374. 

Sir  Robert  de  Ufford,  his  son,  married  Helen,  daughter  of 
Sir  Thomas  Felton,  Knt.  and  died  in  1400,  leaving  Amey  his 
daughter  and  coheir,  who  brought  this  lordship  by  marriage  to 
Sir  W^ilHam  Bowet,  of  an  ancient  Cumberland  family,  and 
who,  it  appears,  was  dead  in  the  tenth  of  Henry  V.  and  this 
lady  re-married  to  Sir  Henry  Inglose. 

EHzabeth,  daughter  and  heir  of  the  above  Sir  William  Bowet 
and  Amey  Ufford,  married  Sir  Thomas  Dacre,  son  and  heir  of 
Thomas  Lord  Dacre,  of  Gillesland,  and  in  her  right  became 
proprietor  of  this  manor ;  and  Joane,  his  daughter  and  heir, 
brought  it  to  Sir  Richard  Fiennes,  who  became  Lord  Dacre,  in 
right  of  the  said  Lady  Joane,  his  wife. 

Mr.  Parkin  names  Sir  William  Bowet,  Sir  Henry  Inglose, 
and  the  Lord  Dacre,  as  having  an  interest  here,  but  mistakes  as 
to  the  Uffords,  Earls  of  Suffolk,  being  owners.  Our  manuscript 
authority  proceeds  as  follows : — 

"  28  Jan.  21  Hen.  VII.  Sir  Thomas  Fynes,  Lord  Dacre,  and 
Anne  his  wife,  doth  by  deed  enroUed  in  Chancerie,  for  420/, 
bargaine  and  .sell  unto  Sir  WiUiam  Capell  and  his  heirs  the 
mannor  of  Burgh  St.  Margarette,  with  the  appurtenances, 
and  he  covenhteth  the  same  to  be  of  tiie  yeareUe  valewe  of 
25/.  13s.  4<d.  Thomas  Lord  Dacre  and  William  Fynes  his 
uncle  doe  release  unto  Sir  William  Capell  and  John  Bayrefoot, 


BURGH    ST.    MARGARET'.S,    NORFOLK.  201 

clerk,  and  their  heirs,  all  their  right  in  this  mannor,  6  Apr.  in 
the  same  year."  W illiam  Fynes  gives  a  particular  warrantry 
against  the  Abbat  of  Westrainster  and  his  successors.  The  ex- 
tent  of  the  demesne,  as  inserted  in  the  said  release,  was  thirty 
messuages,  twenty  tofts,  1000  acres  of  land,  100  acres  of  mea- 
dow,  300  acres  of  pasture,  10  acres  of  wood,  300  acres  of  heath 
and  bruery,  and  \0U  rent  in  Burgh  St.  Margaret,  Burgh  St. 
Mary,  and  adjoining  parishes. 

It  continued  in  the  family  of  Capel  until  2  Chas.  I.  of  which 
family  our  manuscript  furnishes  the  following  account: — 

"  Sir  W^iUiam  Capell,  Knt.  died  the  7th  Hen.  VIII.,  Sir 
Giles  Capell  being  his  son  and  heir,  who  died  the  3rd  and 
4th  of  Philip  and  Mary,  Sir  Henry  Capell  being  his  son  and 
heir,  who  died  without  issue  the  following  year,  leaving  Sir  ELd- 
ward  Iiis  brother  and  heir.  Sir  Edward  Capell  died  about  the 
18th  Eliz.  Henry  Capell,  Esq.  being  his  son  and  heir ;  who  died 
in  the  30th  of  the  same  reign,  Sir  Arthur  Capell  being  his 
son  and  heir;  who  died  the  8th  Chas.  i.  Arthur  Capell  being 
his  grandchild  and  heir,  i.  e.  son  and  heir  of  Sir  Henry  Capell, 
son  and  heir  of  Sir  Arthur  Capell." 

The  steward  of  the  Abbat  of  St.  Bennet  at  Holm  paid  sixty 
shillings  unto  the  lord  yearly  for  a  fishery  in  this  parish  ;  by 
this  and  other  payments  it  appears  that  the  fishings,  of  which 
there  were  several  here,  namely,  Awdley's-meres,  Brandwith- 
water,  Coddespond,  Newfleete,  Weybridge,  Burgh  faldgate, 
Burghfleete,  &c.  yielded  more  profit  to  the  lord  than  the  soil. 

There  was  anciently  a  foldcourse  belonging  to  this  manor, 
and  also  a  swan  mark,  and  licences  were  given  from  time  to 
time  by  the  Lord  for  marriages.  There  were  several  wardships 
belonging  unto  the  manor,  and  tenures  by  knight's  service ;  the 
Court  had  power  to  hold  pleas  of  personal  and  real  actions, 
and  the  Lord  claimed  all  waifes  and  estraies.  It  is  ap- 
parent,  by  the  deeds  of  purchase,  fines,  and  other  assurances, 
that  the  manor  of  Burgh  doth  extend  into  Billockby,  and  that 
the  Lord  of  Burgh  had  both  freeholders  and  copyholders  in 
Billockby. 

In  the  1  Sth  Eliz.  Sir  Henry  Capell  and  Henry  Capell  grant 
a  lease  unto  Thomas  Gawdye,  one  of  the  Justices  of  the  Queen's 
Bench,  of  one  hundred  acres  of  marsh,  rendering  yearly  seven 
pounds;  and  in  10  Jac.   I.   Robert  Tasburge  hires  the  Swan

mark,  with  liberty  to  breed   swans,   rendering  yearly   twelve 
pence,  on  lease  for  seventeen  years. 

STIFKEY. 

The  same  authority  gives  some  particulars  respecting  the  pa- 
rish  of  Stifkey,  in  the  hundred  of  North  Greenhow,  in  Norfolk, 
not  noticed  by  the  county  historian. 

The  principal  lordships  in  this  parish  were  Turtevile's  and 
Irmingland's  manors,  Netherhall,  and  Stowes,  or  Stifkey.  Mr. 
Parkin  notices  several  smaller  manors,  or  free  tenements,  that 
afterwards  became  united  to  one  or  other  of  the  above,  and  in  a 
copy  of  a  court  roll  of  20  Hen.  VII.  the  style  of  Stifkey  Nether- 
hall  is  given,  all  the  rest  being  Stifkey  only. 

In  some  abstracts  from  the  copies  of  the  court  held  for  the 
manor  of  Stifkey,  and  the  manor  of  Stifkey  Netherhall  and 
Stowes,  tlie  writer  conceives  them  to  be  all  one,  because  he 
finds  the  Bulleyn's  to  be  owners  of  the  manor  of  Netherhall  and 
Stowes,  "  and  yet,"  he  observes,  "  there  bee  several  coppies  in 
the  tyme  of  Edw.  IV.  wherein  there  is  one  Stifkey  put  without 
an  addition." 

lu  4  Ric.  II.  Sir  John  de  Akom,  Attorney-general  of  the 
Earl  of  Northampton,  grants  a  lease  for  nine  years  of  the 
church  of  St.  IVlary  in  Stifkey,  and  view  of  the  manor  of  Stif- 
key,  with  the  appurtenances.  It  is  added,  "  being  the  inherit- 
ance  of  the  Earle  of  Northampton ;  of  wardes,  marriages,  es- 
cheats,  and  forfeitures,  rendring  5^.  6s.  8d." 

Thomas  of  Woodstock,  Duke  of  Gloucester,  youngest  son  of 
King  Edward  III.  was  created  Earl  of  Buckingham  and  North- 
ampton,  at  the  coronation  of  Richard  II.  in  1377,  and  the  King 
gave  him  1000  marks  yearly  out  of  his  treasury,  until  he  had 
provided  him  land  to  that  value ;  and  this  property  was  proba- 
bly  obtained  by  a  grant  from  the  Crown,  during  the  minority 
of  Elizabeth  and  Mary,  daughters  and  coheirs  of  David  Stra- 
bolgi,  third  Earl  of  Athol,  as  one  William  Parker  was  rector, 
and  presented  by  the  King  about  that  time. 

This  is  the  only  account  we  meet  with  of  the  early  proprietors 
of  this  manor  until  the  12th  Edw.  IV.  when  the  lord  makes  a 
grant,  to  Peter  Holme  and  Emme  his  wife,  of  an  acre  of  the 
demesne,  and  this  appears  to  be  the  first  court  of  William 
Bolleyn. 


STIFKEY,    NORFOLK.  203 

In  38  Hen.  VIII.  Sir  James  Buleyn,  Knt.  for  600/.  bargains 
and  sells  the  manor  called  Netherhail  and  Stowes,  and  the  ad- 
vowson  of  the  church  of  St.  Mary  in  Stifkey,  unto  James  Cal- 
thorpe,  of  Cockthorpe,  Esq.  and  his  heirs ;  and  Sir  James 
Buleyn  levies  a  fine  unto  James  Cahhorpe  of  the  said  manor 
and  advowson,  with  the  appurtenances,  and  of  ten  messuages, 
with  as  many  gardens,  three  hundred  acres  of  land,  forty  acres 
of  meadow,  two  hundred  acres  of  pasture,  forly  acres  of  heath 
and  bruery,  three  hundred  acres  of  salt-marsh,  and  one  hundred 
shilUugs  rent,  and  the  rent  of  ten  hens,  two  hundred  eggs,  and 
three  quarters  of  oats,  in  Stifkey  and  parishes  adjoining,  and  of 
a  foldcourse  for  six  hundred  sheep  in  Stifkey. 

A  licence  of  aUenation  was  granted  to  the  said  James  Cal- 
thorpe,  Esq.  in  3  &,  4  Piiil.  &  Mar.  and  he  makes  a  feoffment 
in  trust  for  the  use  of  Thomas  and  John  Calthorpe  his  younger 
sons,  and  after  his  death  it  passed  to  them  accordingly. 

In  3  Eliz.  John  Calthorpe  makes  a  lease  of  his  moiety  unto 
Thomas  Cahhorpe  his  brother,  for  nine  years,  at  the  yearly 
rent  of  20/.  with  a  proviso  to  be  void  upon  the  taking  of  the 
same  by  John  Cahhorpe  into  his  own  hands. 

In  the  fifth  of  the  same  reign  John  Calthorpe,  for  29/.  bar- 
gains  and  sells  unto  John  Banyard  and  his  heirs,  the  advowson 
of  the  church  of  St.  Mary  in  Stifkey  and  the  moiety  of  the  close 
called  Netherhall  in  the  same  parish,  lying  between  the  church 
of  St.  John  and  St.  Mary  and  a  close  called  Irmingland  on  the 
norlh,  &c.  with  a  covenant  to  levy  a  fine  before  the  end  of 
Trinity  term.  The  following  year  the  said  John  CaUhorpe 
grants  a  lease  of  the  moiety  of  the  manor  of  Netherhall  and 
Stowes  unto  the  said  John  Banyard  for  one  and  twenty  years, 
at  the  yearly  rent  of  20/.  This  accounts  for  the  interest  James 
CaUhorpe,  Esq.  had  in  this  property,  and  also  explains  the  rea- 
son  why  John  Banyard  (not  Baynard)  presented  to  the  church 
of  St.  Mary  in  1564,  although  not  owner  ofthe  lordsbip,  as  Mr. 
Parkin  supposes. 

The  manor  of  Netherhall  and  Stowes  is  held  of  the  Crown  by 
knight's  service  in  chief,  and  it  is  apparent  that  the  advowson  of 
the  church  of  St.  Mary  in  Stifkey  was  anciently  appended  to 
the  said  manor;  but,  being  past  by  James  Calthorpe  to 
Thomas  and  John   his  younger  sons,  tc^ether  with   the  said

manor,  as  above  stated,  the  same  became  an  advowson  in  gross, 
and  divided  from  the  manor. 

There  were  botli  freeholders  and  copyholders  belonging  to 
that  manor,  with  a  leet  appendant  and  court  baron  incident 
thereto,  wl)ich  l)ad  power  to  hold  of  all  civil  and  personal  ac- 
tions,  under  the  value  of  forty  shillings.  Wreck  of  sea  also 
belonged  to  it,  and  there  vvas  anciently  an  officer  called 
Prepositus,  ^  and  the  office  was  termed  Officium  Prepositi,  and 
there  were  several  tenantries  in  the  manor  that  were  in  their 
course,  which  was  every  seven  years,  to  bear  that  office,  and  for 
the  discharge  thereof  there  was  paid  by  the  tenant,  that  was 
to  bear  the  same,  at  the  rate  of  20d.  per  acre. 

Tlie  last  will  and  testament  of  James  Munday,  anciently  a 
tenant  of  this  manor,  is  subjoined,  being  an  exact  transcript  of 
the  original  in  my  possession  : —

lue*s,  &c.  in  Stifkey,  noticed  by  Mr.  Parkin,  with  the  advowson 
of  tlie  church  of  St.  John  Baptist,  in  the  same  parish,  we  collect 
the  following  particulars  : — 

45  Hen.  III.  A  release  from  Galfrid  the  son  of  Bartholomew 
of  Stifkey,  unto  Raphe  the  son  of  William  of  Stifkey,  and 
his  heirs.

Alexander  Curlue  and  his  heirs  for  his  homage  and  service,  and 
six  markes  in  money,  one  piece  of  land,  with  the  appurtenances, 
in  Stifkey. 

2  Edw.  II.  A  grant  and  release  from  Cecily  the  wife  of

remainder  to  the  right  heirs  of  Raphe.

At  the  same  time  a  feofFment  was  made  by  the  said  Ralph 
unto  William  the  son  of  Robert  Storm,  of  Wiveton,  and  his 
heirs,  of  llie  said  manor  and  advowson.  Sir  Walter  de  Cal- 
thorpe,  Robert  de  Baconthorpe,  and  Richard  de  Walsingham, 
knights,  amongst  others,  are  witnesses. 

6  Hen.  V.  A  feoffment  from  John,  parson  of  the  church  of 
Cockthorpe,  and  John  Ecker,  parson  of  the  moiety  of  the 
church  of  Leringsett,  and  others,  unto  Stephen  Burges,  Thomas 
Stoke,  and  Dionise  Wallys  and  their  heirs,  of  twenty-four  acres 
of  land  in  Stifkey,  lyeing  in  thirteen  pieces,  together  with  the 
wards,  marriages,  escheats,  saltmarshes,  and  other  appurte- 
nances,  foldcourses  and  passages,  with  tiie  bounds  and  coasts  of 
the  sea,  whicli  late  were  Thomas  de  Curlues  of  Reynham  St. 
Mary,  and  they,  together  with  others,  had  of  the  feofFment  of 
Richard  Lessehn  of  Stifkey. 

8  Hen.  VL  A  feoffment  from  Edward  Tortevill,  of  Stifkey, 
unto  John  Sutton  and  Guydo  Childerhouse  and  their  heirs,  of 
the  manor  of  Curlues  Knight,  in  Stifkey  and  Cockthorpe. 

By  a  feoffment  of  the  31st  of  the  same  reign  it  appears,  that 
John  Irmingland  was  owner  of  a  manor  in  Stifkey. 

In  the  35 th  of  this  King,  a  feoffment  was  made  from  Sir  Galfrid 
Ratliffe  and  others  unto  Nicholas  Stermin  and  Margaret  his 
wife,  of  the  twenty-four  acres  of  land,  as  above  described, 
which  they  had  jointly  with  Sir  John  Ratliffe  of  the  feoffment 
of  Robert  Stowe  and  John  Wallys,  12  Hen.  VI. 

20  July,  13  Edw.  IV.  A  feoffnient  was  made  of  the  same 
property  from  Nicholas  Sturman  unto  Nicholas  Fortescue,  Es- 
quire  to  the  King's  body,  Joim  Wotton,  Thomas  Langdon, 
and  others,  and  which  he  had  jointly  with  Margaret  his  wife, 
of  the  feoffment  of  Sir  Galfrid  Ratliffe.  A  rental  was  renewed 
for  the  manor  of  Curlues  in  Stifkey,  on  the  18th  of  Aug.  the 
21st  of  the  above  reign. 

It  appears  that  Sir  Thomas  Robyn  had  land  in  Stifkey  in  5 
Hen.  VIIL;  and  on  the  12th  of  May,  in  the  17th  of  that  reign, 
a  feoffment  was  made  from  Thomas  Hodson,  parson  of  Cock- 
thorpe,  to  Henry  Winter  and  Dorothy  his  wife,  and  their  heire, 
with  a  remainder  unto  the  heirs  of  Edmond  Winter  and  Alice 
his  wife,  of  the  manor  of  Curlue  Knight's  in  Stifkey,  with  the 
appurtenances,  which  he  had  of  the  feoffment  of  Henry  Winter 
on  the  6th  of  May,  in  the  same  year. 


STIFKEY,   NORFOLK.  207 

In  20  Hen.  VIII.  Henry  Winter  bargains  and  sells  unto 
Ralphe  Symondes  and  his  heirs,  for  72/.  ninety-five  acres  and 
one  rood  of  land,  parcel  of  the  above  lordship ;  and  there  is  a 
covenant  for  the  levying  of  a  fine,  and  suffering  of  a  common 
recovery.  On  the  ist  of  December,  in  the  same  year,  Ralphe 
Symondes  sells  the  said  property  unto  William  Greene,  and  on 
the  4th  of  that  month  a  feoffment  was  made  from  Ralphe 
Symondes  unto  William  Green  and  others  of  the  same,  and  the 
foilowing  day  a  release  was  made  from  Henry  Winter  unto  the 
said  William  Greene. 

In  the  27th  of  this  reign,  a  feoffment  from  William  Greene 
and  others,  unto  Robert  Childe  and  his  heirs,  of  this  property, 
which  he  had  by  feoffment  from  Ralphe  Symondes  on  the  4th 
of  September  in  that  year.  The  26th  of  December  foUowing, 
a  feoffment  was  made  from  the  said  Robert  Childe  unto  William 
Green,  Edmond  Framingham,  and  others,  of  forty-seven  acres 
and  a  half  and  half  a  rood  of  land,  nieadow  and  pasture,  lying 
in  the  fields  of  Stifkey  and  Cockthorpe,  parcel  of  the  above, 
which  Robert  Childe  had  by  feoffment,  as  above  stated ;  and 
the  following  year  William  Greene  sells  unto  Edmond  Fram- 
ingham  of  Cockthorpe,  all  his  property  in  Stifkey  and  Cock- 
thorpe,  for  120  marks. 

On  the  lOth  of  Dec.  3  &  4  Phil.  &  Mar.  John  Banyard 
for  78/.  bargains  and  sells  unto  James  Calthorpe,  of  Cock- 
thorpe, '  Esq.  and  his  heirs,  the  moiety  of  twenty-one  acres  and 
one  rood  of  land  in  Stifkey,  in  the  south  and  north  fields,  per- 
taining  to  the  foldcourse  called  Netherhall  foldcourse,  the 
moiety  of  the  saltmarsh  pertaining  to  the  said  foldcourse,  and 
all  liberties  and  profits  sometimes  pertaining  to  the  manor  called 

'  Mr.  Parkin,  the  Norfolk  historian,  makes  the  lordship  and  adTowson  of  Cock- 
thorpe  to  have  become  the  property  of  this  family,  in  the  same  way  as  the  Blake- 
ney  estate,  namely,  by  the  marriage  of  Sir  Oliver  Calthorpe  with  Isabel,  daughter 
of  Sir  Robert,  and  sister  and  coheir  of  Sir  Bartholomew  Bacon ;  which  is  correct 
respecting  the  latter,  but  an  entire  mistake  with  regard  to  the  former.  By  an  in- 
dentore  bearing  date  the  20th  of  April,  19  Edw.  IV.  1480,  it  appears,  that  John 
Sharington  sells  the  manor  and  advowson  of  Cockthorpe  to  John,  eldest  son  of 
Richard  Calthorpe,  Esq.  by  Margaret  his  wife,  daughter  of  William,  and  sister  and 
beiress  of  John  Irmingland,  Rector  of  Stifkey  St.  John  Baptist.  This  Richard 
Calthorpe  was  the  second  son  of  William,  the  only  son  of  Sir  Oliver,  and  the  lady 
Isabel  Bacon  his  wife,  grandson,  not  second  son,  of  the  latter,  as  stated  by  the 
above  author,  and  the  person  to  whom  the  Blakeney  estate  was,  by  the  said  lady 
Isabel  his  grandmother,  bequeathed.

performance  of  the  said  bargain  and  sale. 

ACLE,    IN    WALSHAM    HUNDRED. 

The  tenure  of  this  lordship  is  of  knight*s  service,  in  chief  of 
the  King,  and  there  was  paid  in  1636,  12s.  8d.  for  respite  of 
homage.  In  an  old  rental  of  the  second  of  Edw.  VI.  are  men- 
tioned  the  tenure  of  St.  Andrew,  the  tenure  of  Wrongate-land, 
the  tenure  caJled  meadow-land,  workland,  sharedole,  turfdole, 
rushdole,  reeddole,  fendole,  &c.  The  court  leet  used  formerly 
to  appoint  a  constable,  an  ale-taster,  an  officer  calied  Prepositus 
or  reeve,  also  a  reep-reeve,  who  was  to  take  charge  for  reap- 
ing  the  lord's  corn,  a  messer  or  bailiflP  to  collect  the  rates,  a 
custos  communae,  who  had  the  care  of  the  common,  a  custos 
bosci,  who  looked  after  the  lord's  woods,  and  a  cart-reeve,  who 
had  the  charge  and  care  of  carrying  his  corn. 

It  appears  by  several  court  rolls  of  this  manor,  that  there  is  a 
custom  within  the  manor,  that  if  a  woman  who  has  an  estate  in 
land,  holden  of  this  manor,  or  a  title  of  dower,  and  doth  with 
her  husband  come  into  the  court,  and  be  examined  in  the  court 
by  the  steward,  this  is  as  sufficient  a  bar  unto  her  as  if  she  had 
levied  a  fine ;  and  there  was  a  fine  usually  paid  unto  the  lord 
upon  such  an  examination,  and  release  made  in  court. 

In  the  30th  Eliz.  a  lease  was  granted  by  William  Dixe  and 
John  Holland,™  unto  Theodore  Obee,  of  the  windmill,  and  an 
acre  of  ground,  for  fourteen  years,  at  the  yearly  rent  of  6/.;  and 
in  the  32nd  of  the  same  reign,  Nicholas  Crispe  grants  a  lease 
unto  Edmund  Kippinge,  of  the  park  of  Acle,  for  twelve  years, 
rendering  8/. 

ALDEBY,    IN    CLAVERING    HUNDRED. 

The  tenure  of  this  manor  is  of  knight's  service  in  chief ;  a 
court  baron  is  incident  thereto,  and  power  to  hold  pleas  both 
real  and  personal;  and  there  are  both  freeholders  and  copyholders 
belonging  to  the  lordship,  also  a  court  leet,  a  swan-mark,  a  war- 
ren,  and  a  fishing.  There  wcre  heriots  paid  formerly  for  several 
tenements.    The  lord  had  waifes  and  estrays,  and  he  had  harvest

ALDEBY,    NORFOLK.  209 

works  done  by  the  tenanls,  ancl  they  were  to  grind  at  ihe  mill 
of  the  lord.  He  had  liberty  of  folding,  and  sonie  share  or  part 
of  the  marshes  of  Beccles,  and  a  rent  answered  unto  hira  for 
such  his  part. 

In  the  bundle  of  the  Escheat  Rolls  of  the  16th  Edw.  IV.  it 
is  found  tliat  Alianora  died  seised  of  the  manor  of  Hockering 
and  Aldeby,  with  the  appurtenances,  in  the  county  of  Norfolk ; 
and  that  they  were  holden  of  the  King  by  knight's  service  in 
chief,  and  were  worth  by  the  year  36/. 

A  grant  was  made  in  the  9th  Hen.  V.  by  Thomas  de  Morle, 
Lord  of  Morle,  Marshal  of  Ireland,  and  Isabell  his  wife,  unto 
Richard  But,  during  his  life,  of  the  office  of  the  custody  of  the 
warren  of  Aldeby,  and  twopence  by  the  day,  payable  out  of  the 
profit  of  the  said  manor,  for  execution  of  that  office. 

In  the  18th  Edw.  III.  a  feoffment  was  made  from  William  de 
Morley  unto  Adam  Herbert  and  his  heirs,  of  one  plot  of  land 
in  Aldeby,  called  the  Green  . . . .,  with  the  common  of  Meyard 
for  two  cows  and  sheep  and  twelve  old  geese,  rendering  yearly 
unto  him  and  his  heirs,  for  the  plot  of  land  and  common,  three 
shillings  at  Michmas  and  our  Lady. 

In  the  4th  Edw.  II.  a  deed  was  made  by  Thomas  de  Kerde- 
ston,  Archdeacon  of  Norfolk,  reciting  that  Sir  William  Roce- 
line,  Knt.  and  Joane  his  wife,  had  enfeoffed  him  and  his  heirs  of 
the  manor  of  Aldeby,  with  the  appurtenances,  and  of  the  ad- 
vowson  of  the  moiety  of  the  church  of  St.  Matthew  de  Thorpe, 
whereby  he  did  covenant  and  agree  to  make  a  refeoffment,  and 
to  levy  a  fine  of  the  said  manor  and  advowson,  whereby  Sir 
William  Roceline  and  Joane  his  wife,  should  have  an  estate  for 
their  lives  in  the  said  property,  and  after  their  decease,  that  the 
same  should  remain  unto  William  le  Marshal  and  his  heii*s, 
and  he  bound  himself  in  2,000/.  sterling  for  the  doing  thereof. 

By  several  leases  granted  in  the  reigns  of  Philip  and  Mary, 
and  Elizabeth,  it  appears  that  the  lands  in  this  parish  were  let 
at  a  rental  of  about  one  shilling  per  acre  per  annum ;  a  conside- 
ration  was,  however,  sometimes  given  for  a  long  lease.  For 
some  further  account  of  the  parish  of  Aldeby,  see  the  Gentle- 
man's  Magazine  for  1833,  vol.  CIII.  n.  p.  503.

210  SIR    H.    CALTHORPE's    COLLECTIONS. 


HADISCOE  THORPE,    IN    CLAVERING    HUNDRED. 

An  union  was  made  in  the  35th  Edw.  III.  by  Thomas  Bishop 
of  Norwich,  and  confirmed  by  the  Prior  and  Convent  of  Nor- 
wich,  of  the  two  several  moieties  of  the  church  of  Haddiscothorp, 
which  had  two  several  incumbents  in  it,  ofone  of  which  moieties 
John  de  Mowbray  and  his  ancestors  had  been  patrons,  and 
William  de  Morley,  Marshal  of  Iieland,  and  his  ancestors  had 
been  patrons  of  the  other  moiety ;  and  the  said  patrons,  and  their 
heirs,  were,  after  the  death  of  the  incumbent,  to  present  unto 
the  whole  church  in  turns,  and  John  de  Mowbray  was  to  have 
the  first  turn,  and  William  de  Morley  was  to  liave  the  other 
turn,  and  so  a  presentation  to  be  made  perpetually  by  turns. 

WIVETON,    IN    HOLT    HUNDRED. 

There  is  a  custom  that  the  lord  of  Wiveton  Ducis,  or  Stafford 
manor  in  this  parish,  hath  a  bushel  of  coals,  salt,  or  any  other 
measurable  thing,  of  every  ship  thatdoth  unload  within  the  pre- 
cinct  of  that  manor,  and  the  same  ship  was  to  be  unladen  by  the 
lord's  bushel,  and  no  other,  for  no  other  was  to  keep  a  bushel, 
and  the  bailiflf  had  twopence  for  weighing  every  weigh  of  salt. 
There  was  paid  for  every  English  ship,  other  than  those  of  the 
same  port,  four  pence  for  anchorage,  and  for  every  alien  ship 
eight  pence. 

The  lord  was  to  have  of  every  island  ship,  a  warp  of  fish  of 
his  own  choice,  that  is  to  say,  one  ling  and  one  cod,  if  the  ship 
was  stored  with  both,  if  but  with  one,  then  a  warp  of  that  it 
was  stored  with. 

The  lord  is  to  have  of  every  ship's  loading  of  fish  dried  upon 
his  ground,  a  warp  of  fish  for  composition.

This  Church,  dedicated  lo  St.  Michael,  consists  of  a  nave  and 
chancel.  It  was  cieled  in  1725,  according  to  an  inscription  on 
the  north  wall  of  the  nave.  The  royal  arms  are  of  the  date  of 
1717,  and  nearly  obliterated.  The  register  commences  in  1592, 
but  the  earliest  volume  is  a  mixture  of  loose  leaves  put  together 
without  regularity,  though  not  in  bad  preservation.  The  east 
window  of  the  chancel  is  of  three  trefoiled  lights  with  trefoiled 
headings.  There  are  four  windows  of  two  trefoiled  lights  each, 
two  on  the  north  and  two  on  the  south  side.  Those  to  the 
west  are  plain ;  those  to  the  east  have  an  ogee-head  to  the  tre- 
foil.  The  nave  has,  on  the  north  side,  one  single  trefoiled  win- 
dow,  and  another  of  two  lights  cinquefoiled.  The  south  side  has 
a  window  of  two  lights  cinquefoiled,  and  another  of  two  lights 
trefoiled.     The  font  is  modern,  and  of  wood. 

Exterior. — The  dripstones  to  the  windows  are  quite  plain. 
There  is  part,  still  remaining,  of  an  ornamented  ridge-tiling 
to  the  roof  of  the  nave.  It  is  engrailed  and  pierced,  and  has 
a  pleasing  effect.  The  porch  on  the  south  side  is  plain,  and 
has  been  modernised.  The  tower  at  the  west  end  is  built  of 
the  brown  sandstone  of  the  country,  with  brick  copings,  and 
much  modernised,  though  not  in  an  unsightly  manner,  if  a  small 
clock-tower  of  wood  be  excepted.  There  is  an  old  rude  stone 
near  the  porch,  perhaps  part  of  a  tomb,  or  cross,  now  apparently 
used  as  a  seat.  The  church  is  prettily  situated  on  a  hill,  near 
which  is  a  fine  view  towards  Farnham  and  the  Holt  Forest.  It 
is  a  perpetual  Curacy  with  a  stipend  of  15/.  per  annum. 

Chancel. — Against  the  east  wall,  on  the  north  side  of  the 
communion  table,  is  a  slab  of  white  marble,  inscribed  to  the 
memory  of  John  Allden,  who  died  January  2,  1829,  aged  69. 

Near  the  above  is  a  brass  plate,  within  an  alabaster  border,  or 
frame,  engraved  as  follows  : — 

"  Morire  mundo,  vivas  Deo."

Underneath  are  three  shields.  Surmounting  that  in  the  centre 
is  the  Crest :  viz.  a  lion's  head  erased  quarterly  guttee  in  each 
quarter.  Arms :  Per  fess,  a  pale  counterchanged,  three  roundels 
barry  wavy  of  six,  2  and  1,  and  three  lion's  heads  erased,  1  and 
2,  IVhite.  Motto:  "  In  God  is  my  trust."  The  dexter  shield 
has  the  same  coat,  impaling  a  chevron  between  three  popinjays, 
within  a  bordure  charged  with  eight  bezants,  White  of  South 
Wanborough.a  The  sinister  shield  has  also  the  same  coat  im- 
paling,  on  a  fess  engrailed  between  three  martlets,  a  cinquefoil 
between  two  pomegranites :  meant  for  Sowday,  but  there  is  no 
such  coat.  Under  the  dexter  shield  are  the  names  of  the  follow- 
ing  children : — Thomas,  Robert,  William,  Benjamin,  Benjamin, 
Margaret,  Mary,  and  Jane.  Under  the  sinister  shield : — John 
and  Thomas.    Katharine.    Below  is  this  inscription : — 

"  Here  under  lyeth  buried  y^  body  of  Syr  John  Whyte,'» 


■  The  blazon  of  these  coats  is, — Per  fess  azure  and  or  pale  counterchanged,  three 
roundels  barry  wavy  of  six,  argentand  vert,  2  and  1,  and  three  lion's  heads  erased, 
gules,  1  and  2.  Crest,  a  lion's  head  erased  quarterly  azure  and  or  gutt^e  in  each 
quarter  counterchanged,  White  of  Aldershot.  Argent,  a  chevron  gules  between 
three  popinjays  vert  within  a  bordure  azure  charged  with  eight  bezants,  White  of 
Wanborough,  the  first  wife  of  Sir  John  White.  The  second  wife  was  daughter  of 
John  Sowday,  of  London. 

^"  There  were  three  knights  of  this  name  living  nearly  at  the  same  time,  and  all 
bearing  totally  diflferent  arms.  1.  The  Sir  John  abovementioned.  2.  Sir  Thomas 
of  South  Wanborough,  his  brother-in-law  :  and  3.  Sir  Thomas  the  founder  of  St. 
John'8  College,  0:^ford,  who  was  Lord  Mayor  a  few  years  before  Sir  John  White's 
mayoralty.  The  will  of  Sir  John  was  proved  in  1573.  He  describes  minutely  the 
place  where  he  desired  to  be  buried,  viz.  on  the  north  side  of  the  chancel,  and  that 
a  plate  of  brass  should  be  put  up,  "  with  the  border  of  alablaster  stone  already 
made  for  it."  He  mentions  his  wife  Dame  Katharine  :  his  sons  Robert,  William, 
John  and  Thomas,  and  his  daughter  Katharine.  He  also  mentions  his  daughter 
Offley,  andhis  daughter,  deceased,  the  wife  of  Laurence  Hussey,and  a  brother  Ro- 
bert  White,  of  Farnham  ;  but  whose  name  does  not  appearin  the  pedigree  of  W^hite 
in  Vincent'8  Hants.  CoU.  Arm.  130.  Sir  John  is  mentioned  by  Stowe,  as  of  the 
Company  of  the  Grocers,  Sheriflf  in  1556,  and  Lord  Mayor  in  1563  ;  and  further, 
as  having  been  buried  at  Aldershot  in  1571 ;  which  date,  it  will  be  seen,  is  erro- 
neous.  The  pedigree  of  White,  as  given  in  Manning  and  Bray,  is  not  very 
accurate.  That  in  Vincent  includes  the  two  families  of  Aldershot  and  South  Wan- 
borough,  who  were  doubly  allied  by  marriage,  Sir  John  having  married  the 
sister  of  Sir  Thomas  White,  of  South  Wanborough  ;  and  Sir  Thomas  having  mar- 
ried  Sir  John's  sister.  They  do  not  deduce  their  origin  from  a  common  ancestor, 
although  each  traced  to  a  connexion  with  Farnham.  The  alliances  of  the  Wan- 
borough    branch  were   of  a    higher   order,   and  it  is    proposed,   hereafter,    to

The  non-insertion  of  the  dates  shows  that  this  plate  was  placed 
there  in  the  lifetime  of  Sir  John. 

On  the  opposite  side  of  the  communion  table,  and  against  the 
east  wall,  is  a  slab  of  white  marble  to,

Against  the  south  wall  is  a  kneeling  figure  of  a  female  with 
seven  sons  and  six  daughters.  Above  her  is  a  shield  bearing  the 
coat  of  Tichbome,  viz.  Vaire,  a  chief  or,  impaling,  Quarterly,  Ist 
and  4th,  IVhite,  2nd  and  Srd,  Ermine,  on  a  chevron  cotised  sable 
three  martlets  or,  Bradley. 

On  the  dexter  side  is  a  shield  bearing  the  coats  of  White  and 
Bradley,  quarterly. 

On  the  sinister  side  another  shield  bearing,  Quarterly,  Ist 
and  4th  Tichbome :  2nd  White^  and  3rd  Bradley. 

Below  is  the  following  inscriplion  : — 

"  Here  lieth  y<=  body  of  Lady  Mary  Tichborne,^  y«  wife  of 
Sf  Walter  Tichborne,  Knight,  who  was  maried  to  him  y«  7  of

tempora,  tolerabilis,"  bore  for  his  arms,  Per  chevroa  embattled  argent  and  gules, 
three  roses  coanterchanged,  on  a  chief  of  the  second  three  hoor-glasses  of 
the  first.     He  died  in  1588. 

^  A  notice  of  this  gentleman'8  decease  in  1812,  is  in  the  Gent.  Mag.  voL 
LXXXII.  u.  674. 

*  The  descent  of  Tichbome  in  Manning  and  Bray,  vol.  iii.  p.  177,  is  erroneoos. 
It  is  there  stated  that  the  manor  of  Tongham  went  to  Sir  Walter  and  Mary  Tich- 
bome,  and  "  from  them  it  descended  to  Benjamin  their  son,  who  died  in  1660  or 
1661,  leaving  Francis  his  son  and  heir."  Francis  was  the  yoonger  brother,  and  not 
the  son,  of  Benjamin.  The  disposition  of  the  arms  on  this  monument  is  remark- 
able  :  the  coat  of  Foster  being  excluded.  The  coat  of  Bradley  was  borae  quarterly 
with  that  of  Foster  by  the  mother  of  Mary  Tichbome ;  this  latter  being,  Sable,  on 
a  chevTon  engrailed  argent  three  pellets.     See  Vincenfs  Hantfl.  ColL  Arm.  130.

desk.  Above  are  two  shields,  one  bearing  the  coat  of  Tichborne, 
the  other  Tichborne  impaling  White.  The  inscription  is  as 
foliows : —

"•  Sir  Richard  Tichborne,  who  was  knighted  by  James  soon  after  his  accession, 
is  stated  inVincent's  Hants,  158,  to  have  had  by  his  wife  Ellen  a  daughterWyburga; 
but,  by  the  pedigree  in  Register  of  Baronets,  4. 149,  in  CoU.  Arm.  he  appears  to  have 
left  only  a  daughter,  Ampliillis,  wife  of  Laurence  Hyde,  son  and  heir  of  Sir  Laurence 
Hyde.  The  male  issue  of  Sir  Richard  Tichborne,  by  a  second  wife,  became  extinct 
in  1743,  when  the  grandfather  of  the  present  Baronet,  who  was  great-grandson  of 
Francis  and  Susanna  Tichborne  of  Aldershot,  succeeded ;  and  by  his  marriage 
with  Mary  the  daughter  of  Michael  Blount,  Esq.  of  Maple  Durham,  by  Mary-

Nave. — Agaiiist  ihe  north  wall  is  a  monument  of  white  mar- 
ble,  inscribed: — 

"  In  a  vault  near  this  spot  is  deposited  the  body  of  John 
Brownrigg,  A.B.  late  of  Queen's  College  in  the  University  of 
Cambridge,  and  Assistant  Minister  of  this  parish,  who,  after 
eminently  displaying  ihe  Christian  character  in  the  discharge 
of  the  social  and  private  duties  of  Hfe,  and  unwearied  exertions 
in  the  pastoral  office,  entered  a  glorious  imraortality  on  the  14-th 
day  of  May  1809,  aged  29  years." 

"  His  steady  eye  snrveyed  the  happy  shore 

WLere  grief  and  pain  and  sickuess  are  no  more, 

Counted  the  mighty  ransom  that  was  given 

To  waft  the  sinner's  soul  in  peace  to  Heaven  ; 

Dwelt  on  the  promised  bUss  to  lost  mankind, 

VVhile  praise  exalted  filled  his  humble  mind, 

Not  on  himself^  but  on  his  Lord  relied, 

And,  in  his  boundless  love  exulting,  died." 

Against  the  same  wall,  on  a  tablet : — 

**  Near  this  place  lie  deposited  the  remains  of  Charles 
ViNER,»  Esq.  Barrister  at  Law,  who  died  June  5,  1756,  aged 
78  years.  His  widow,  Mrs.  Raleigh  Viner,  died  January  3, 
1761,  aged  79  years.  Also  of  John  Elwes  Weekes,  Esq.  who 
died  January  6,  1762,  in  the  78th  year  of  his  age,  and  ordered 
this  monument  to  be  erected  to  perpetuate  the  memory  of  him 
and  his  beloved  sister.  The  first  a  generous  benefactor  to  the 
University  of  Oxford  ;  ihe  two  last  kind  and  charitable  to  their 
poor  neighbours." 

'  The  ma^ificent  bequest  of  this  gentleman  to  the  University  of  Oxford,  hia 
consequent  association  with  Judge  Blackstone  and  his  Commentaries,  not  forget- 
ting  his  own  learned  work,  have  insured  an  immortality  to  his  name  as  long  as 
England  shall  be  a  civilised  conntry.  The  compiler  of  Chalmers^s  Biographical 
Dictionary,  in  stating  that  he  died  at  his  house  at  Aldershot,  adds,  "  at  wbat  age 
we  know  not."  The  monumental  inscription  corrects  this  omission ;  as  it  likewise 
does  the  not  unnatural  guess  of  the  compiler,  viz.  "  that  he  was  of  the  professioa 
of  the  law  may  be  supposed." 

In  the  preface  to  the  I3th  toI.  of  the  folio  edition  of  the  Abridgements  (which 
was  the  first  volume  published)  is  the  following  passage  :  "  The  commencement  of 
this  work  was  writ  in  the  present  century,  at  which  time  I  was  admitted  a  mem- 
ber  of  tbe  Honourable  Society  of  the  Middle  Temple,  and  attended,  as  a  student, 
the  Courts  of  Westminster."  According  to  the  entries,  Mr.  Viner  was  admitted 
27  Nov.  1700.  In  Bridgeman'8  Legal  Bibliography,  p.  351,  it  is  stated  that,  not 
only  was  the  work  printed  at  Aldershot,  but  that  the  paper  was  manufactured 
under  the  author'8  eye,  whose  initials  C.  V.  are  in  watermark.

CRONDALL. 

This  Church,  dedicatcd  to  All  Saints,  consists  of  a  nave,  two 
side  aisles,  and  a  chancel.  The  registers  are  in  excellent  preser- 
vation.  The  earliest  dates  are  as  follow: — Christenings  1569; 
Marriages  1576  ;  Burials  1575. 

The  Chancel  is  separated  from  the  nave  by  a  horse-shoe  arch, 
with  a  rich  double  zig-zag  moulding.  There  is  also  a  similar  arch 
in  the  centre  of  the  chancel,  resting  on  clustered  columns  with 
foliated  capitals.  The  piers  in  both  cases  incline  outwards.  The 
roof  has  a  cross  groining  with  a  nail-headed  course  and  a  foliated

crests ;  the  one  for  Sir  John,  the  other  for  his  son  Robert.  These  two 
helmets  still  hang  up  on  the  right  and  left  of  the  east  window. 
James  the  First,  who  took  much  notice  of  the  Tichborne  faraily,  was  no  less 
than  three  times  at  Aldershot.  First,  on  the  2nd  of  September  1618,  when  he 
knighted  Sir  Benjamin  Tichborne  the  younger,  brothcr  of  Sir  Richard  and  Sir 
Walter.  Secondly,  on  the  17th  of  August  1622,  when  he  issued  a  summons  to 
Sir  Richard  Houghton,  Bart.  "  given  at  our  Court  at  Aldershott ;  "  and  again,  to- 
wards  the  end  of  August  in  the  following  year.  [See  Nichols's  Progresses.]  Charles 
the  First  was  also  there  on  the  24thof  August  1627.  (Finetti  Philo.xeiiis,  p.  221.) 
The  old  house,  surrounded  by  a  moat,  with  a  drawbridge,  was  pulled  down  many 
years  since.     The  present  owner,  Mr.  Barron,  has  a  residcnce  near  the  site.

boss.    The  compartment  over  the  communion  table  has  a  similar 
groining,  but  the  boss  is  an  Agnus  Dei. 

The  east  window  is  entirely  gone,  having  been  replaced  by  a 
frighiful  modern  light.  Against  the  north  wall  are  vestiges  of 
two  windows,  one  a  single  lancet,  the  olher  appearing  to  have 
been  a  double  one.  Both  the  south  windows  are  of  a  very  late 
date,  and  common  character. 

The  nave  is  separated  from  the  side  aisles  by  four  circular 
arches  resting  on  circular  columns  with  enriched  capitals ;  six 
have  the  fan  moulding,  the  rest  are  foliated. 

The  clerestory  windows  are,  on  the  north  side,  four  lancets 
with  small  columns  and  fan  capitals;  on  the  south  side  there  are 
three,  but  irregular,  without  columns,  and  in  part  blocked  up. 
There  is  a  plain  string-course  on  either  side.  The  west  wiiidow 
is  modern  ;  of  the  ancient  one  two  small  columns  with  foliated 
capitals  remain.  The  south  aisle  is  parted  off  at  its  easlern 
extremity  for  the  pews  belonging  to  Ewshot  estate.  At  the  east 
end  of  the  north  aisle,  and  on  the  south  side,  is  a  piscina  with  a 
plain  ogee  arch.  The  royal  arms,  on  the  west  side  over  the  central 
arch,  are  dated  A.  R.  1703.     The  font  is  rude  and  simple. 

The  original  lovver  no  longer  exists.  The  present  tower, 
built  of  brick,  stands  on  the  north  side  of  the  chancel,  and  was 
erected  in  1659  at  a  cost  of  312^.  15s.  8d. 

The  north  door  of  the  aisle  is  Norman,  with  a  zig-zag  and 
nail-headed  moulding.  Thedoor  at  the  west  end  is  also  circular, 
with  a  plain  moulding,  having  a  face  in  the  centre.  The  door 
on  the  south  side  is  now  blocked  up. 

Chancel. — Against  the  north  wall  is  a  monument  of  black 
marble  with  a  shield  bearing  quarterly, 

1 .  Vert,  a  lion  rampant  argent. 

2.  Argent,  three  bars  gules,  in  chief  three  lion*s  heads  erased 
of  the  second.  Love. 

3.  Or,  on  a  chevron  gules  three  .  .  .  .  or,  between  three 
columbines  slipped  proper.  Colnet. 

4.  Or,  a  lion  rampant  argent,  holding  a  dragon  vert,  per- 
haps  Dauncy,  *  but  the  colours  are  not  correct. 

*  The  anns  on  this  shield  are  very  confused.  Instead  of  being  Rivers  impaling 
Colnet,  the  first  is  a  quartering  of  Love  ;  the  third  the  maiden  arms,  viz.  Colnet ; 
and  the  fourth  doubtful.  In  the  pedigrees  of  Colnet  and  Love  in  Vincent  130, 
CoU.  Ann.  this  lady  appears  under  the  less  euphonious  name  of  Dousabella. 
Bamabas  Colnet  was  of  Combley  in  the  Isle  of  Wight,  and  had  several  children  by 
his  wife  Elizabeth,  the  sister  of  Sir  Richard  Mills.  The  charges  of  the  chevron  in 
the  coat  of  Colaet  are  beyond  the  reach  of  heraldic  description.

"  Near  this  place  lye  interred  Peter  Walraven,^  Ksq.  who 
was  strictJy  just  in  his  Hfe  and  manners;  prudent  in  his  con- 
duct,  and  amiable  in  his  conversation,  remarkable  tbr  being  one 
of  the  best  husbands,  ever  ready  to  do  all  good  offices  to  all  who 
wanted,  and  were  really  worthy  of  them,  sincere  in  friendship 
where  he  professed  it,  and  never  professing  it  but  where  he 
thought  it  was  truly  deserved  ;  at  last,  after  he  had  wisely  enjoyed 
an  easy  fortune  in  a  happy  retirement,  having  had  but  one  day's 
illness,  he  fell  asleep.  This  monument  was  erected  by  Henrietta 
Walraven,  in  memory  of  her  dear  husband  Peter  Walraven, 
whose  desire  was,  at  her  decease,  that  she  should  be  laid  in 
the  same  vault  by  him.  He  died  December  the  lOth,  1737, 
aged  62." 

Against  this  wall,  is  a  small  canopied  monument  of  Purbeck 
marble ;  three  brass  shields,  formerly  in  the  upper  pannelling, 
are  gone ;  as  are  those  in  the  pannelling  below.  Under  the 
canopy  is  a  shield  bearing  ten  roundels,  surmounted  by  the 
crest :  viz.  a  hand  holding  three  carnations.  Below  are  the 
figures  of  a  man  and  woman  kneeling;  behind  him  are  the 
figures  of  five  sons ;  behind  her  are  those  of  eight  daughters. 
The  brasses  of  the  man  and  of  the  daughters  alone  remain. 

Inscription : —

'  There  was  a  grant  of  arms,  but  totally  unlike  the  above,  to  Sir  John  Wal- 
raven,  Envoy  to  Amsterdam  in  1718. 

*  The  arms  of  this  family  of  Gifford  were  Argent,  ten  torteam.  They  are  stated  to 
be  descended  from  the  Giffords  of  Brimsfield.  Sir  William  Gifford  married  Eleanor, 
one  of  the  sisters  of  Sir  George  Paulett.  There  are  some  discrepancies  in  the  de- 
scents  of  this  family,  as  recorded  in  D.  13,  and  G.16.  MS.  CoU.  Arm.  Sir  Wm.  Gif- 
ford's  will  was  proved  in  1548.  He  desires  to  be  buried  at  Crondall,  and  names  his 
wife  Johan  (who  wa»  probably  his  second  wife,  a  daughter  of  Sir  John  Rogers),  son 
Jerome  Gifford,  daughter  Alice,  daughter  Mary,  and  son  Haydock  (probably  hus- 
band  of  Mary),  nephew  Kingsmill,  god-daughter  Barbara  Paulett ;  and  makes  his 
8on  Richard  Gifibrd  residuary  legatee.  The  will  of  his  son  John  Gifford  of  Itchele 
was  proved  in  the  year  of  his  decease,  viz.  1563.  He  names  his  wife  Elizabeth, 
son  George  Gifford,  daughters  Elizabeth,  Milicent,  Grisegan,  Mary,  and  Jane. 
He  mentions  his  manors  of  Itchell,  Cove,  and  Usshot  (sc.  Ewshot) :  also  the  ma- 
nor  of  Weston  in  Gloucestershire,  and  lands  at  Norton  in  the  same  county.  The 
Visitation   (G.   16)  names  three  of  the  four  other  sons,  viz.  John,  William,  and 

Richard ;  and  o&e  of  the  three  other  daughters,  viz.  Katharine,  married  to 

More  of  Oxfordshire.     Of  the  remaining  daughters,  Elizabeth  was  wife  of

county  of  Nottingham,  and  of  Lydia  Boughton  his  wife.  She 
departed  this  life  on  the  8th  of  January  1837,  in  the  30th  year 
of  her  age.  To  the  best  gifts  of  nature  were  added  the  richer 
graces  of  God's  Holy  Spirit,  which  shone  brightly  on  her  life, 
supported  her  through  long  and  painful  illness,  and  to  the  last 
imparted  perfect  peace.  The  following  lines,  written  by  her- 
self,  may  best  shew  the  calm  confidence  of  her  hope  in  death. 

*  I  go  through  darkness  to  unclouded  light, 
Thro'  pain  and  suffering  to  eternal  joys  ; 
Oh  !  for  a  voice  to  speak  the  cahn  delight 
That  all  my  being,  all  my  soul  employs. 
Rejoice  o'er  one  so  early,  truly  blest, 
Borne  by  a  Saviour  to  a  Father*s  rest.' 

On  the  floor  adjoining  the  communion  table  are  three  slabs. 

The  first  covers  the  remains  of  Peter  Wah'aven. 

The  second  had  originally  a  brass  (apparently  a  female)  with 
an  inscription,  and  two  shields  of  arms. 

The  third  had  aiso  a  female  brass,  with  an  inscription,  but 
without  arms.

FARNBOROUGH. 


This  Church,  dedicated  to  All  Saints,  consists  of  a  nave  and 
chancel.  The  chancel  is  separated  from  the  nave  by  a  screen 
of  no  early  workmanship,  and  the  royal  arms  on  the  chancel 
screen  were  renewed  in  1815. 

On  the  floor  is  the  entrance  to  a  iarjje  vault. 

The  east  window  is  plain,  square-mullioued,  with  eight  lights. 
On  the  north  and  south  side  are  modern  ill-shaped  wooden 
windows.  The  font  is  not  deservins:  of  notice ;  and  the  windows 
of  the  nave  are,  with  the  exception  of  two  broad  lancet  lights, 
poor  and  modern. 

There  is  a  plain  modern  tower  of  wood,  with  a  low  slated 
spire,  at  the  west  end,  repaired  about  nine  years  ago. 

On  the  south  side  of  the  nave  ure  the  remains  of  a  small 
Norman  door  with  a  plain  billet  moulding.  There  is  also  on 
this  side  a  door  communicating  with  the  chancel,  of  the  time  of 
Henry  the  Eighth. 

On  the  northside  of  the  nave  is  a  wooden  porch  of  open  cinque- 
foil-headed  pannelling,  restored  in  parts  at  a  recent  date.  The 
door  within  exhibits  good  remains  of  Norman  work,  viz.  foliated 
capitals  to  the  columns,  and  a  nail-headed  moulding  to  the  arch. 

The  chancel  has  two  different  roofings  ;  the  western  division 
running  at  right  angles  to  the  roofing  of  the  nave,  and  of  the 
eastern  part. 

On  the  north  side  of  the  churchyard  is  a  monument  to  Ed- 
WARD  Barnard  KiNG,  Captain  in  the  34th  foot,  who  died  Jan.

King  and  Sarah  his  wife,  who  died  March  9,  1798,  aged  eight 
months  and  tvvo  weeks.

lo  have  been  copied  from  an  original  book.  Tlie  present  book 
being  dated  "  1599,"  and  headed,  "  Tlie  registered  Church

This  Church,  dedicated  to  AU  Saints,  consists  of  a  chancel, 
nave,  and  south  aisle,  or  chapel. 

The  chancel  is  lighted  by  two  very  narrow  lancets  at  the  east 
end,  and  one  on  the  north  and  south  side  of  a  similar  character. 
It  is  is  separated  from  the  nave  by  a  wooden  screen,  of  compara-

The  nave  is  separated  from  the  south  aisle  by  a  pointed  arch, 
resting  on  low  circular  columns  with  plain  capitals.  The  west 
window  has  two  trefoil  lights  with  a  quatrefoii  heading.

Farnborough,  as  was  her  husband  in  1737.  "  If  a  stranger  should  be  brought  a-

well  planted  with  trees."  (Macky'»  Journey  through  England,  1722,  ii.  11.) 

The  present  Rector,  the  Rev.  J.  H.  Clayton,  states  that  there  are  many  entries 
ef  the  Annesley  family  in  the  register  between  1662  and  1737.

The  south  aisle  has  an  east  window  of  three  broad  lancets. 
The  south  side  is  lighted  by  two  trefoil  windows.     Between 
the  east  window  and  the  nearest  of  the  south  side  windows,  is  a

The  font  is  plain  and  circular. 

The  register  commences  in  1561,  and  is  in  very  good  preser-

between  1680  and  1753,  containing  entries  of  burials,  certifyed 
by  the  signs  manual,  and  in  some  cases  attested  by  the  seals,  of 
the  magistrates,  that  the  parties  were  buried  in  woollen.  The

YATELY,    HAMPSHIRE.  235 

Between  the  nave  and  the  south  aisle  or  chapel,  is  a  stone 
which  had  formerly  brasses  of  a  man  and  his  wife,  with  their 
children,  and  four  shields  at  the  four  corners. 

YATELY. 

This  Church,  dedicated  to  St.  Peter,  consists  of  a  nave,  chan- 
cel,  and  south  aisle. 

The  chancel  is  lighted  at  the  east  end  by  three  lancet  win- 
dows,  that  in  the  centre  being  the  taliesL  On  the  north  side 
is  a  single  lancet  window,  the  second  being  closed  up.  The 
south  side  had  three  lancets,  all  now  closed  up.  The  font  is 
perfectly  plain,  and  is  placed  within  the  communion  rails.  The 
north  door  has  been  closed  up ;  but  the  south  door  is  still  used. 
There  is  a  an  achievement  with  the  coat  and  crest  of  Wyndham. 

The  nave  is  separated  from  the  south  aisle  by  four  pointed 
arches,  resting  on  low  octagonal  columns  with  plain  capitals. 
On  the  north  side  is  a  window  of  two  cinquefoil-headed  lights,  a 
similar  window  with  a  square  heading  of  four  trefoiled  lights, 
and  a  double  lancet. 

The  royal  arms  are  of  the  date  1 660. 

The  south  aisle  has  an  east  window  of  three  ogee-headed 
lights.  On  the  south  side  are  a  small  double  lancet  and 
three  windows  of  two  cinquefoiled  lights,  two  being  under  ogee 
canopies. 

The  floor  within  the  communion  rails  has  some  figured  tiles, 
principally  stags,  lions,  and  fleurs-de-Iys. 

Under  the  south  window  of  the  chancel  is  an  hexasronal 
stoup,  with  a  circular  place  for  the  bread  adjoining. 

On  the  south  side  of  the  exterior,  is  a  door  to  the  aisle  now 
closed  up.  The  north  porch  has  a  circular  door  witb  remains 
of  a  billeted  moulding  within  a  beading.  The  tower  is  modem, 
and  of  wood.  There  is  a  lych  gate.  The  date  seen  upon  it  by 
Mr.  Caley  ■  in  1794  (viz.  1625)  no  longer  exists. 

*  A  partial  acconnt  of  this  charcb,  with  the  monumental  inscriptions,  is  given 
in  the  meagre  Historj  of  Hampshire,  publisbed  under  tbe  name  of  Mr.  Wamer.  It 
was  derived  from  a  commonication  sent,  tbe  year  preceding  (1794)  to  the  Gentle- 
man'8  Magazine  by  the  late  John  Caley,  Esq.  F.S-A.  [See  Gent.  Mag.  toL  LXIV. 
part  n.  p.  98-t.]  A  note  of  tbis  monoment,  but  not  the  inscription  in  foll,  is 
there  giyen.  The  arms,  now  obliterated,  are  stated  to  bave  been  "  Or,  on  a 
cheTron  sable  three  bird^  erased,"  (meaning,  it  is  presumed,  eagle'8  beads  erased)

Chancel.— Against  the  north  wallisa  marble  monument  sur- 
mounted  by  an  urn,  with  this  inscription  : — 

"  Near  this  place  lies  interred  the  body  of  Walter  Phillips, 
late  of  this  parish,  gentleman,  who  married  Katherine,  one 
of  the  daughtersof  Dean  Goodwin,  of  Blechingly,  in  the  county 
of  Surrey,  Esq.  They  lived  in  happy  wedlock  for  the  spaceof33 
yeares,  and  had  fbur  children,  three  of  which  died  young.  The 
said  Walter  Phillips  departed  this  hfe  the  lOth  of  April  1715, 
in  the  80th  year  of  his  age. 

Psalm  73,  v.  26. 
"  A  state  like  mine  thine  own  is  sure  to  be, 
Redeem  the  time  that  swiftly  flies  from  thee." 

"  Here  also  lies  buried  the  said  Mrs.  Katherine  Philups, 
who  came  to  mingle  with  his  beloved  dust,  y^  17th  May  1718, 
in  y^  67th  year  of  her  age." 

On  the  north  side  is  also  a  large  cokmin  of  white  marble, 
surmounted  by  a  phiin  urn  of  the  same  material,  standing 
within  a  sort  of  niche  of  black  marbie.^  It  has  no  inscription, 
but  on  the  top  is  a  shieki  bearing,  on  a  bend  cotised  three 
fusils,   Ryves,   impaling   a   fess   between    three    crescents,  Lee. 

^  Mr.  Caley  calls  this  a  mural  monument,  though  it  can  hardly  be  so  styled, 
and  gives  the  following  inscription.  This  is  now  no  where  to  be  found,  and  is 
Bupposed,  in  all  probability,  to  be  on  a  slab  below,  concealed  by  the  pews  : — 

♦•  Memorise  sacrum.    Here  lieth  the  body  of  Sir  Richard  Ryves,  Knt.  Sheriff 
and  Aldernian  of  London,  who  was  born  in  the  county  of  Dorsett,  descended  of  an 
ancient  and  gentile  family  of  that  name  in  the  said  county.    He  married  Joyce,  the 
daughter  of  Henry  Lee  of  London,  merchant ;  the  piety  of  which  relict  lady  hath 
erected  this  monument  to  the  memory  of  her  dear  deceased  husband  ;  intending, 
when  she  shall  lay  down  her  earthly  tabernacle,  to  make  her  bed  in  the  same  grave, 
there  to  rest  with  him  in  hope  of  a  joyful  resurrection.     He  departed  this  life  ia 
the  60th  yeareof  his  age,  Aug.  23,  in  the  year  of  the  incarnation  of  our  Saviour 
Christ  Jesus,  1671."     He  was  of  the   Drapers'  Company,  and  Sheriff  in  1663. 
In  his  will,  proved  in  1671,  he  mentions  his  wife,  and  his  late  brother  John  Ryves, 
of  Kensington,  deceased  ;  John  the  only  son  of  his  late  brother  ;  and  Christian 
and  Lettice,  his  brother's  daughters  ;  also  his  sister  Eleanor  Staveley  and   her 
children.     He  calls  his  seat  at  Yately  "  Hall  Place,"  and  leaves  50/.  to   be  laid 
out  in  land,  the  rents  to  go  annually  to  the  poor  of  Yately.     It  thus  appears  that 
there  was  a  double  connexion  between  him  and  the  Helyar  family,  and  he  may  pos- 
sibly  have  been  the  Sir  Richard  mentioned  in  the  pedigree  of  Ryves  of  Damory 
Court  by  Hutchins,  as  nephew  to  Bruno  Ryves,  Dean  of  Windsor  in  1660.     Th©

P.  56,  1.  26,  after  "  daughters,"  note.  I  don't  find  good  au-

first  to  Simon  de  St.  Liz,  Earl  of  Huntingdon,  by  whom  she 
had  two  sons,  and  a  daughter  nanied  Maud ;  and  secondly,  to 
David,  son  of  Malcolm  Canmore  King  of  Scotland,  to  whom 
King  Henry  the  First  gave  the  Earldom  of  Huntingdon,  which 
their  son  also  enjoyed  in  prejudice  to  her  eldest  son  hy  thefirst 
husband.  The  second  daughter  of  Earl  Waltheof  was  Alice  as 
in  the  text ;  but  Dugdale  has  mistaken  with  respect  to  the  wife 
of  Robert,  son  of  Richard  de  Tonbridge,  who  was  grand-daugh- 
ter  of  Earl  Waltheof,  being  the  daughter  of  Maud  Countess  of 
Huntingdon  by  her  first  husband,  and  like  her  mother  named 
Maud.  a

P.  58l>,  1.  21,  after  "  Albini,"  note.  This  is  a  mistake  some- 
what  like  that  which  I  have  noticed  under  Northumberland. 
Maud,  the  wife  of  William  de  Albini,  was  not  the  widow  of 
Robert  son  of  Richard,  but  his  daughter  by  Maud  St.  Liz,  as 
the  reference  itself  will  shew. 

The  marriage  of  Robert  FitzRichard  with  Maud  de  St.  Liz 
took  place  in  1112 ;  his  death  in  1132,  and  hers  in  1140,  as  the 
Chronicle  of  Dunmow  shows.  ^ 

Note.  There  is  much  confusion  in  the  text  in  describing  the 
inheritance  of  this  honour  amongst  the  descendants  from  Maud 
the  daughter  of  Earl  Waltheof  by  her  two  husbands,  who  seem 
to  have  enjoyed  something  like  an  alternate  succession.

252  ADDITIONS    TO    DUGDALE's    BARONAGE. 

Marmion. — Vol.  I.  p.  375. 

P.  377,  1.  61,  qfter  «  heirs."  This  account  of  Philip  and  of 
his  marriage  and  issue  is  very  imperfect,  and  requires  explana- 
tion  and  enlargement. 

It  appears  upon  the  division  of  his  property  amongst  his  co- 
heirs,  that  he  possessed  one  entire  Barony  in  his  own  right, 
called  Marmioriy  and  a  moiety  of  another  by  marriage  in  right 
of  Joan  his  first  wife,  youngest  of  the  two  daughters  and  coheirs 
of  Hugh  de  Kilpec,  whose  entire  Barony  called  Kilpec  had  been 
formerly  divided  between  the  said  Joan  and  her  elder  sister 
Isabella,  wife  of  William  Wah*ond  :  by  this  Joan  he  had  issue 
three  daughters,  and  surviving  her  he  married  a  second  wife 
named  Mary  (but  of  what  family  has  not  been  ascertained)  by 
whom  he  had  a  fourth  daughter  called  Joan.  Upon  his  death 
a^.  20  Edw.  I.  the  lands  belonging  to  the  Barony  of  Marmion 
were  divided  between  all  the  four  daughters,  but  of  the  moiety 
of  the  Barony  of  Kilpec  the  youngest  daughter  had  no  share. 

In  the  partition  of  the  jBarowy  o/^ilfameow,  that  is  to  say,  of 
the  lands  whereof  that  Barony  was  composed, 

Joan,  the  eldest  daughter,  then  wife  of  William  de  Morteyn, 
had  one  portion ; 

Joan,  daughter  of  Mazera  the  second  daughter  (who  had 
died  before  her  father),  anolher  portion ; 

Maud,  the  third  daughter  of  Philip,  and  then  wife  of  Ralph 
le  Boteler,  a  third  portion ;  which  three  portions  were  delivered 
to  the  respective  parties,  being  all  of  full  age ;  but  the  fourth 
portion,  that  of 

Joan  the  youngest  daughter,  was  retained  in  the  King's  hands 
on  account  of  her  minority,  she  being  then  only  eight  years  old. 
Of  her  more  hereafter. 

The  castle  of  Tamworth,  which  was  the  Caput  Baronia,  be- 
longed  to  Joan  de  Morteyn  as  the  eldest  coheir,  according  to 
ancient  custom.  She  paid  twenty-five  pounds  for  her  relief, 
"  de  prima  4  parte  unius  Baronice  quam  idem  Philippus  tenuit 
de  Rege  in  capite  die  quo  obijt,"  and  at  the  same  time  twenty- 
five  marks  as  the  eldest  daughter  and  one  of  the  coheirs  of  her 
mother  Joan  de  Kilpec,  for  relief  of  the  portion  belonging  to 
her  of  the  laiids  and  tenements  which  the  said  Philip  her  father 
held  by  ihe  law  of  England  at  the  tinic  of  his  dealh  as  of  the 


ADDITIONS   TO    DUGDALE*S    BARONAGE.  253 

inheritance  of  the  said  Joan  de  Kilpec  his  wife,  viz.  of  the  first 
third  part  of  a  moiety  of  a  Barony  whicli  had  belonged  to  Hugh 
de  Kilpec,  father  of  the  said  Joan,  "  quae  Baronia  integra  partita 
fuit  inter  Isabellam  quee  fuit  uxor  VVittmi  Walerond  et  eamdem 
Johannam,"  as  daughters  and  heirs  of  the  said  Hugh. 

Joan  de  Morteyn,  the  eldest  daughter,  dying  without  issue,  as 
above  stated,  her  portion  came  to  be  divided,  and  in  the  division 
the  Caput  Baronia  of  Marmion  passed  to  the  eldest  of  the  three 
other  coheirs,  viz.  to  Baldwin  Freville,  in  whose  male  descend- 
ants  it  continued  till  aP.  6  Henry  V.  when  the  last  Baldwin  Fre- 
ville  died  without  issue,  leaving  three  sisters  his  coheirs,  Eliza- 
beth,  wife  of  Thomas  Ferrers,  Margaret,  wife  of  Hugh  Wil- 
loughby,  *  and  Joice,  wife  of  Sir  Roger  Aston,  from  all  of  whom 
there  is  abundant  issue.  In  the  partition  of  lands  Elizabeth 
Ferrers,  as  the  eldest  coheir,  again  took  the  Caput  BaronicBy 
Tamworth  casile,  and  it  is  now  (1817)  possessed  by  George 
Marquess  Townshend,  her  lineal  descendant  and  heir. 

Joan,  the  youngest  coheir  of  Philip  Marmion,  and  his  only 
daughter  by  the  second  wife,  proved  her  age  sfi.  27  Edw.  I.  (E^c. 
de  eod.  anno.)  She  married  first  to  Thomas  de  Ludlowe,  who 
died  a°.  7  Edw.  II.  and  secondly  to  Henry  Hillary,  and  had  by 
the  first  a  son  named  Tfiomasy  and  by  the  second  a  son  named 
Edward.  As  the  issue  of  the  first  still  flourishes  in  abundance, 
it  is  not  necessary  for  the  present  purpose  to  follow  the  line  of 
the  second.  Her  son  Thomas  Ludlow  left  an  only  daughter, 
Margaret,  his  heir,  who  married  to  Sir  John  Dymoke,  Knt.  who, 
possessing  in  her  right  the  manor  of  Scrivelsby  in  the  county  of 
Lincoln,  claimed  in  that  right  to  exercise  the  ofBce  of  Champion 
at  the  coronation  of  King  Richard  the  Second,  and  was  adjudged 
by  the  Court  of  Claims  to  perform  it  accordingly.  Her  pos- 
terity  continues  in  the  name  of  Dymoke  lo  this  day,  but  I  am 
not  quite  sure  that  the  inheritance  did  not  pass  out  of  the  male 
line  about  the  time  of  Charles  the  Second.  ^

N.B.  The  descenclants  of  this  Joan  liave  a  third  interest  with 
those  of  FreviUe  and  Boteler  in  the  Barony  of  Marmim,  but  no 
share  whatever  in  the  moiety  of  the  Barony  of  Kilpec,  not  being 
descended  of  the  mother  by  whom  that  moiety  canie. 

For  this  Barony  of  Marmion  there  are  no  writs  of  summons 
to  Parliament ;  indeed  the  only  person  who  enjoyed  the  Barony 
entire  died  before  any  regular  records  of  Parliament  are  to  be 
found. 

It  is  proper  to  observe,  that,  although  the  daughters  of  Philip 
appear  always  to  have  been  considered  as  his  heirs,  and  to  have 
shared  his  possessions,  yet  he  had  a  son  named  Robert,  who  sur- 
vived  him,  and  whose  issue  remains  to  this  day.  The  proof  of 
his  existence  is  this :  An  inquisition  was  taken  at  Tamworth, 
8  Jan.  ao.  20  Edw.  I.  in  which  the  jury  say&  that  PhiHp  Mar- 
myon  had  the  manors  of  Pyricroft  and  Glascote  (co.  Warw.) 
with  their  appurtenances,  by  gift  of  the  King,  according  to  the 
dictum  of  Kenelworth ;  that  Glascote  is  held  in  chief  of  Maud 
de  Chnton,  who  disputed  the  right  witli  Philip,  whereupon  it 
was  agreed  that  Maud  should  grant  to  Phihp  the  wardship  and 
marriage  of  Isabella,  daughter  and  heir  ofGiles  FitzRalph  (late 
tenant  of  Glascote)  until  she  should  become  of  age  ;  that  Philip 
conveyed  this  grant  to  Robert  Marmion  his  son,  who  made  her 
his  wife ;  that,  when  Isabella  came  of  age,  her  husband  and  she 
claimed  the  said  manors  from  Philip  before  the  justices  itinerant 
at  Warwick ;  Phihp  appeared  and  acknowledged  their  right, 
and  therefore,  upon  the  death  of  Philip,  the  said  manors  ought 
to  go  to  said  Robert  and  Isabella,  and  her  heirs,  quit  of  the  heirs 

manor ,-  but  there  was  a  counter-claim  for  Robert  Heywood,  (the  grandson  of  Ro- 
bert  Dymoke,  elder  brother  of  Sir  Edward's  father  Nicholas,)  as  heir  general.  Here 
then  would  be  found  the  heir  of  the  Barony  of  Marmion,  (unless  the  issue  of  Hey- 
wood  is  extinct,)  if  a  Parliamentary  Barony  had  existed  in  Philip  Marmion,  who 
died  20  Edw.  I.  Sir  Edward  Dymoke,  lord  of  Scrivelsby,  to  whom  the  Cham- 
pionship  was  adjudged,  died  in  1663-4,  having  had  issue  three  sons,  Sir  Charlet, 
Edward,  and  John.  The  line  of  Sir  Charles  failed  in  1760.  Edward  died  in  1694, 
and  was  in  1817  represented  by  Mr.  Dymoke  Wells.  John  died  in  1668,  and  was 
the  ancestor  of  John  Dymoke,  Esq.  who,  being  seised  of  the  manor  of  Scrivelsby, 
performed  the  office  of  Champion  at  the  coronation  of  King  George  III.  in  1761. 
His  son  Lewis  Dymoke,  Esq.  in  1814,  claimed  the  Barony  of  Marmion  as  apper- 
tenant  to  the  tenure  of  Scrivelsby,  and  the  claim  was  opened  before  the  Com- 
mittee  for  Privileges  in  1816 ;  but  no  adjudication  has  been  made  upon  it.

held  of  the  King  by  the  service  of  finding  "  Carbonem  et  Lite- 
ram  ad  Cameram  Dni  R."  whenever  his  Majesty  shall  come  to

Basset  of  Weldon. — Vol.  I.  p.  378. 

P.  378'',  1.  60.  It  appears  by  Inquisition,  that  Ralph  Basset 
of  Weldon  died  a».  42  Hen.  III.  li  and  that  Richard  Basset  was 
his  son  and  heir  and  then  of  full  age  (Vinc.  36.  24.),  and  that 
the  manor  of  Woodnewton,  co.  Northampton,  was  held  of  Sir 
Richard  Basset,  of  Weldon,  a».  3  Edw.  I.  i  (Vinc.  36.  94.)  This 
Richard  died  &°.  4  Edw.  I.  holding  per  Baroniam  leaving  Ralpli 
his  son  and  heir  32  years  old  and  upwards.''  Ralph  died  in  23 
Edw.  I.  leaving  Richard  his  son  and  heir,  who  had  then  livery 
of  his  lands,  and  was  summoned  to  Parliament  in  25  and  27 
Edw.  I.  •  In  34  Edw.  I.  he  had  licence  to  impark  a  certain 
wood  called  Le  Halgh,  in  his  manor  of  Weldon,  containing  61 
acres  of  land  to  hold  to  him  and  his  heirs  for  ever.  ™  In  the

said  Ralph  and  the  heirs  of  his  body,  with  remainder  to  his  right 
heirs.o  It  appears  by  the  Inquisition  ad  quod  dampnum,  taken 
upon  this  occasion,  that  he  would  also  possess  the  manor  of 
Pightesle,  which  he  held  of  the  Abbat  of  Peterborough  by  the

The  heirs  of  this  Barony  of  Basset  of  Drayton,  as  far  as  I 
have  been  able  satisfactorily  to  trace  them,  will  appear  in  the 
annexed  table.  Isabel,  the  wife  of  Sir  Thomas  Sliirley,  was  a 
natural  daughter  of  the  father  of  the  last  Lord. 

In  a  pedigree  drawn  out  in  1383  for  Sir  George  Shirley,  her 
lineal  descendant  and  heir,  by  Robert  Glover,  the  most  learned 
and  skilful  herald  that  ever  lived,  she  is  expressly  called  "  soror 
uaturahs  ultimi  Radulphi  Domini  Basset  de  Drayton."  The 
arms  ascribed  to  her  being  the  coat  of  Basset  of  Drayton,  de- 
bruised  of  a  baton  sinister.  (It  is  true  that  Dugdale,  in  his 
grant  of  Supporters  to  Lord  Ferrers,  includes  Basset  of  Drayton 
without  the  baton  amongst  the  quarterings  of  Shirley,  but  that 
will  weigh  nothing  against  the  authority  of  Glover.)

Basset  of  Hedendon. — Vol.  I.  p.  383. 

P.  383^,  1.  4,  Note.  In  one  of  Vincent's  MSS.  in  the  College 
of  Arms  (no.  52,  p.  7),  it  is  said  that  the  Bassets,  of  Humbley, 
co.  Devon,  descended  from  this  Gilbert.

Despenser. — Vol.  1.  p.  389. 

There  seems  great  reason  to  doubt  whether  the  Robert  De- 
spenser  here  mentioned  was  the  progenitor  of  this  family  :  the 
lands  ascribed  to  him  in  Domesday  were  afterwards  possessed  by 
Marmion,  whose  ancestor  he  certainly  vvas,  and  not  by  Despen- 
ser.  Even  from  Thurstan  the  descent  can  only  be  traced  with 
certainty  from  public  records  for  three  or  four  generations.  *i 

Hugh,  who  was  Justiciar  of  England  in  44  Hen.  \l\.  and  lost 
his  life  in  the  battle  of  Evesham,  is  the  first  from  whom  the  chain 
of  descent  can  be  drawn  with  certainty.  Dugdale  states  him  to 
have  been  son  of  Thomas,  and  quotes  Glover  as  his  authority : 
but  upon  referring  to  Glover,  Hugh,  the  son  of  Thomas,  does 
not  appear  to  have  had  any  issue,  and  he  (Glover)  describes  the 
falher  of  the  Justiciar  thus,  "  Galfridus  Dispensator  miles  egre- 
gius  obijt  anno  1251,  35  Hen.  HI."  ' 

•J  See  vol.  V.  p.  .'>,  for  a  note  respecting  the  early  descent  of  the  Le  Despencers, 
printed  from  another  part  of  Mr.  Townsend's  MSS. 

'  Mr.  Townsend  here  refers  to  a  pedigree  by  Glover,  with  notes,  Ph.  29.  227. 
and  a  figure  of  Sir  Hugh  Le  Despencer  on  horseback  armed,  with  the  following 
underwritten  in  a  MS.  of  Vincenfs  (no.  114,  162).

tioned  the  King  for  his  wife's  portion  of  the  inheritance  of  her 
late  brother,  Gilbert  de  Clare,  Earl  of  Gloucester,  stating  that 
by  the  inquisitions  taken  after  his  death  in  thecounties  of  Bucks, 
Essex,  and  Northampton,  it  was  found  that,  unless  the  Countess 
should  be  pregnant,  Alianor,  wife  of  the  said  Hugh,  Margaret, 
and  Elizabeth,  the  three  sisters  of  tbe  said  Earl,  were  his  next 
heirs ;  by  those  taken  in  Oxford,  Berks,  and  SufFolk,  that,  if  the 
said  Countess  should  not  be  pregnant,  the  said  Eleanor,  Marga- 
ret,  and  Isabella,  were  his  sisters  and  heirs.  In  Wales  the 
juries  said  tliey  understood  that  Maud,  the  Countess,  was  preg- 
nant,  and  unless  she  were  so,  the  said  Eleanor,  Margaret,  and 
Ehzabeth  were  his  heirs.  In  London  and  Hants  they  knew  not 
who  were  the  heirs,  because  it  was  said  the  Countess  was  preg- 
nant.  InDevon  and  Herts  the  jury  said  positively  that  Eleanor, 
Margaret,  and  Isabella;  and  in  Dorset,  Huntingdon,  and  Sur- 
rey,  ihat  Eleanor,  Margaret,  and  Ehzabeth,  were  the  heirs.  He 
therefore  claimed  that  portion  of  the  lands  and  tenements  of 
her  said  brother,  which  according  to  the  laws  and  custom  of 
the  kingdom  would  belong  to  her  as  the  eldest  sister  (tanquam

Scrope,  two  of  the  Judges  for  the  King,  that,  it  having  been 
stated  in  inquisitions  that  the  Countess  was  pregnant,  the  King 
could  nct  do  any  thing  that  might  prejudice  the  issue,  but  would 
retain  the  lands  in  his  own  custody  until  the  truth  could  be  as- 
certained  respecting  such  pregnancy ;  and  the  claimant  having 
quoted  Magna  Carta,  which  declares,  that  the  King  ought  not 
to  refuse,  avoid,  or  delay  to  do  right  or  justice  to  any  one :  the 
Judges  answered  "  quod  tantum  operatur  Magna  Carta  de  liber- 
tatibus  Angliee  pro  impregnatura  prefatse  comitissae  in  hoc  casu 
quantum  pro  predictis  Hugone  et  Eleanora  ac  ahjs  jus  vendi- 
cantibus  in  hac  parte."  It  was  further  urged  by  the  Claimant, 
that  the  Earl  died  on  the  30th  of  June  a^.  7,  since  which  day  so 
much  time  had  elapsed  as  that,  according  to  the  common  course 
of  chiUlbirth  "  non  posset  dici  a  prefato  Comite  impregnata." 
The  Judges  replied,  that  they  ought  not  to  do  any  thing  injuri- 
ous  to  her  pregnancy,  that  she  conceived  by  the  late  Earl  her 
husband,  and  that  from  the  time  of  his  death  "  ipsa  sensit  pue- 
rum  vivum  in  ventre  suo  tempore  et  die  debito  et  illud  inconti- 
nenter  notificavit  Dno  Kegi,  Dnae  Reginee,  et  alijs  magnatibus  de 
Regno,  et  nichilominus  de  hoc  quasi  per  totum  Regnum  et  pre- 
cipue  in  partibus  ubi  ipsa  tunc  moram  traxit  fuit  et  est  pubhca

be  decided  "  sine  assensu  magnatum  de  Regno,"  it  was  post- 
poned  to  the  next  Parliament.  In  the  mean  time  the  King 
directed  a  writ  of  Privy  Seal  to  the  Lord  Chancellor  and  the  two 
Chief  Justices,  with  the  assistance  of  such  of  the  King's  Counsel 
as  were  in  London,  to  listen  to  any  further  arguments  that  the 
Claimant  might  think  fit  to  offer,  and  to  lay  their  opinions  and 
advice  thereupon  before  his  Majesty.  Before  this  tribunal  he 
urged  the  chapter  of  the  Great  Charter  above  quoted,  adding, 
that  no  one  questioned  or  disputed  their  right,  and  requesting 
that  if  the  King  knew,  or  was  aware  of  any  law,  that  would  ap- 
ply  against  the  claim,  he  would  be  pleased  to  communicate  it, 
that  it  might  be  answered.  The  Chancellor  and  Judges,  after 
examining  the  several  inquisitions,  and  having  dehberated  with 
the  rest  of  the  Counsel,  reported,  tliat  it  was  a  business  of  such 
difficulty  and  rarity  that  they  dare  not  decide,  or  even  advise 
the  King  upon  it,  "  sine  assensu  magnatum  de  Rcgno."  On 
receiving  this  report  the  King  appointed  tiie  first  day  of  the 
next  Parliament.    That  Parliament  assembled  at  Lincohi  in  the 


ADDITIONS   TO    DUGDALE*S    BARONAGE.  261 

quindenes  of  St.  Hilary  &°.  9,  where  the  Claimant  renewed  his 
suit.  The  said  Gilbert  and  Gefferj',  for  the  King,  repeated  the 
reasons  before  assigned,  adding  that,  although  the  birth  of  the 
child  (which  might  by  various  natural  causes  have  been  delayed) 
had  not  taken  place,  such  delay  ought  not  to  prejudice  the 
question  of  pregnancy,  at  least  so  long  as  the  course  of  nature 
did  not  contradict  the  supposition  of  pregnancy,  but  rather  led 
to  the  anticipation  of  a  birth,  and  that  it  behoved  the  King  to 
save  himself  harmless  at  all  events.  That  the  Clairaant  might, 
if  he  had  thought  fit,  have  sued  out  a  writ  "  de  ventre  inspe- 
ciendo,"  according  to  the  practice  of  the  Court  of  Chancery  in 
similar  cases,  that  the  Countess  had  been  at  all  times  ready  to 
submit  to  such  examination ;  this  course  he  had  neglected,  and 
his  neglect  ought  to  be  visited  upon  himself,  and  not  suffered  to 
prejudice  the  question  of  pregnancy.  The  King  then  appointed 
a  Committee,  consisting  of  certain  Prelates  and  others  learned 
in  the  Civil  and  Canon  Laws,  to  consider  of  the  business ;  but, 
they  not  being  able  to  agree  uf)on  any  final  arrangement  of  so 
difficult  and  so  rare  a  case,  a  day  was  appointed  in  the  quin- 
denes  of  Easter  for  the  said  Hugh  and  his  wife  to  appear  before 
the  King  and  his  Council.  At  this  meeting  the  matter  was  fur- 
ther  postponed  to  ihe  next  Parliament,  where,  on  Monday  after 
the  feast  of  St.  Nicholas  a®.  10,  the  King's  pleasure  was  an- 
nounced,  that  the  Chancellor,  the  Treasurer,  the  Barons  of  the 
Exchequer,  the  Judges  and  others  of  his  Council  should  meet  to 
examine  into  the  business,  and,  if  possible,  do  complete  justice 
to  the  Claimants.  At  length,  after  two  or  three  further  dis- 
cussions,  in  a  convocation  assembled  by  the  King's  command,  in 
the  quindenes  of  Easter  a<*.  10,  before  the  Archbishop  of  Can- 
terbury  and  other  Prelates,  Earls,  and  Barons,  the  Lord  Chan- 
cellor,  Treasurer,  Justices  of  both  Benches,  the  Chancellor  and 
Barons  of  the  Exchequer,  Clerks  of  the  Chancery,  and  others  of 
the  King's  Council,  the  whole  of  the  former  proceedings  having 
been  recited,  fuU  debate  and  discussion  had,  and  certain  inquisi- 
tions  examined,  which  had  been  taken  and  returned  intoChancery 
more  than  a  full  year  after  the  Earl's  death,  in  correction  of 
certain  defects  in  former  inquisitions,  and  after  full  discussion 
and  argument  had  upon  the  whole,  it  was  agreed  that  ihe  said 
Eleanor,  Margaret,  and  Elizabeth  were  the  next  heirs  of  the  said 
Earl,  and  of  full  age.     This  award  having  been  conveyed  to  ihe

say,  that  the  line  continued  in  regular  male  succession,  holding

mother  is  every  where  described  as  Nesta,  daughter  of  Rys  ap

to  the  King  claiming  this  Barony,  and  praying  to  be  summoned  to  Parliament  ac- 
cordingly.  The  petition  was  referred  to  the  then  Attorney-General  Sir  Thomas 
Denman,  who  reported  thereon  in  May  1832,  and,  in  concluding  his  report,  ob- 
serred,  "  that,  although  the  fact  of  the  ancient  Barons  having  actually  sat  in  Parlia- 
ment  had  received  no  direct  proof,  the  argument  adduced  (stated  in  the  report) 
appeared  to  him  to  deserve  great  consideration ;  "  and  recommended  that  the  case 
should  be  referred  to  the  House  of  Peers.  The  King  was  accordingly  pleased  to 
send  the  claim  for  the  consideration  of  the  House,  when  the  claimant  laid  his 
printed  case  upon  the  table,  but  it  has  never  proceeded  to  a  hearing.

(Extractedfrom  the  CoUections  of  Sir  Henry  CaUhorpe ; 
see  before,  p.  210.) 

From  Domesday  Book  it  appears  that  the  manor  of  "  Stane- 
wen^a "  was  "  Terra  Regis  Heroldi,"  and  so  by  intention  an- 
cient  demesne. 

By  a  deed  without  date,  remaining  in  the  ledger  book  of  the 
abbey  of  Colchester,  it  appears  that  John  de  Burgo,  son  and 
heir  of  Hubert  de  Burgo,  Earl  of  Kent,  granted  to  the  Abbat 
and  Convent  of  Colchester,  and  their  successors,  a  tenement  and 
lands  in  Stanway  that  were  Roger  de  Coseber's,  and  two  marks 
of  free  rent  issuing  out  of  certain  lands  there  mentioned,  in 
Stanway  and  Lexden. 

This  John  de  Burjjo  made  a  feoffment  unto  Thomas  de  Bel- 
hous  and  Floria  his  wife,  and  their  heirs,  of  the  manor  of  Stan- 
way,  and  the  advowson  of  the  church,  he  to  render  to  the  said 
John,  and  his  heirs,  a  pair  of  gilt  spurs  and  sixpence  yearly  at 
Christmas, »  and  John  de  Burgo,  the  son  of  John  the  son  of 
Hugh,  confirmed  the  same.  By  an  office  of  the  time  of  King 
James  I.  it  appears,  that  the  manor  of  Stanway  and  capital  nies- 
suage  of  Bellhouse,  and  house  of  Bastard,  were  lield  of  Tiiomas 
Lucas,  as  of  his  manor  of  Lexden,  by  knight*s  service,  and  the 
same  yearly  tenure  as  above.  Thomas  de  Belhous  and  Floria 
his  wife,  had  issue  Thomas,  b  who  had  issue  Thomas  and  John ; 
and,  Thomas  dying  without  issue,  the  manor  descended  to  John, 
as  his  brother  and  heir.  In  the  7th  Edw.  II.  John  de  Belhous

John  de  Bello  Carapo  of  the  said  manor  unto  John  de  Belhous 
and  Isolda,  and  the  heirs  of  John,  to  hold  of  the  chief  lord ;  and 
in  the  13th  of  the  same  reign,  a  court  was  held  in  the  name  of 
Isolda  de  Belhous. 

In  the  31st  Edw.  III.  a  court  was  held  in  the  name  of  John 
de  Belhous;  and  in  the  16th  Ric.  II.  John  de  Belhous  died, 
leaving  issue  Thomas  his  son  and  heir,  and  the  said  manor  and 
advowson  descended  unto  him,  who  made  a  feoffment  of  this 
property  to  John  Stanstead  and  others,  upon  condition  to  make 
a  feofFment  unto  Alice  his  wife  during  liis  life,  and  after  her  de- 
cease  unto  the  right  heirs  of  the  said  Sir  Thomas  and  Alice, 
who  died,  leaving  issue  Joane  his  daughter  and  sole  heir,  and 
she  died  without  issue,  leaving  Isolda,  her  cousin  and  heir, 
namely,  the  sister  and  heir  of  Thomas,  the  son  of  John. 

This  Isolda  married  John  Casteleyne,  and  had  issue  by  him 
Joane,  her  sole  daughter  and  heir,  unto  whom  this  manor  and 
advowson  descended  upon  the  death  of  the  said  John  Casteleyne 
and  Isolda.  Joane  married  Robert  Knivett;  and  John  Stan- 
stead,  with  the  other  feoffees,  conveyed  this  estate  unto  the  said 
Joane  and  her  heirs. 

In  the  2nd  Hen.  IV.  a  court  was  held  for  the  manor  of  Stan- 
way,  in  the  name  of  John  Dorward,  and  entitled  to  be  his  first 
court  as  a  purchaser  from  Robert  Knivett.  Thomas,  c  son  and 
heir  of  this  Robert  Knivett,  married  Eleanor,  daughter  of  the 
said  John  Dorward,  who  died  in  1420,  and  bequeathed  the 
manor  of  Stanway  to  the  said  Thomas  and  Eleanor;  and  it  con- 
tinued  in  that  family  until  the  death  of  Edward  Knivett,  in  the 
18th  Hen.  VIII.  4  Feb.  1501.  Katharine,  his  widow,  (daughter 
of  Henry  Lord  Marney,  K.G.—EdU.)  retained  a  life  interest  in 
this  property,  and  a  reversionary  grant  was  made  to  Margaret

married  lo  the  Hon.  Sir  Francis  Crane,  Knt.  Chancellor  of  the 
Order  of  the  Garter.  For  the  prevention  of  family  disputes, 
and  the  better  assurance  of  the  payment  of  certain  annuities 
bequeathed  by  Sir  John  Swinnerton  to  his  other  children,  an 
indenture  of  partition  was  agreed  upon  in  the  20th  James  I.  be- 
tween  Dame  Thomasine,  relict  of  Sir  John  Swinnerton,  and 
1  homas,  his  third  son;  by  which  agreement  the  former  was  to 
inherit  one  third  part  of  the  estates,  the  property  of  tlie  late  Sir 
John  Swinnerton,  and  the  latter  the  remaining  two  thirds,  each 
subject  to  proportionate  shares  of  the  said  annuities  payable  to

Mary  his  daughter,  wife  of  Sir  John  Miller,  of  Dorsetshire,  Knt.

dated  June  28th,  2  Car.  I.  and  enroJled  in  the  Common  Pleas, 
for  5,200/.  bargains  and  sells  unto  John  Littlebury,  Esq.  and  his 
heirs,  two  parts  in  three  to  be  divided  of  the  manor  or  lordship 
of  Stannaway,  and  two  parts  of  the  park  called  Stannaway  Park, 
and  the  game  of  deer  and  wages,  and  the  advowson  of  the  church 
ofStannaway,  and  two  parts  of  the  manoror  lordshipof  Cocker- 
mouth  in  the  county  of  Essex. 

Morant,  ii.  192,  states  that  Sir  Henry  Calthorpe,  then  Attorney  of 
the  Court  of  Wards,  was  possessed  of  the  niauor  of  Stanway  in  1635. 
To  this  circumstance  is  to  be  attributed  his  formation  of  the  foregoing 
historicai   abstract.     Morant  states  that   the  manor  passed   from  Sir 

Henry  with  his  daughter  in  marriage  to  Hervy,  Esq.  of  Suffolk, 

who  afterwards  sold  it  j  but  this  is  not  correct.  Sir  Henry  died  seised 
of  Stanway  in  1 637,  leaving  an  only  surviving  son,  and  two  danghters, 
namely,  Dorothy,  who  died  in  1 64 1 ,  and  Henrietta  Maria  (born  in  1 636), 
who  died  in  1645,  both  children.  (See  Gent.  Mag.  1831,  part  ii.  p.  406.) 

The  family  of  Dorward  became  possessed  of  the  manor  of 
OIiver'sd  in  this  parish,  by  the  marriage  of  Joane,  only  daugh- 
ter  and  heir  of  John  Oliver,  with  William  Dorward,  Esq.  eldest 
son  of  Ralph  Dorward,  of  Bocking  in  this  county,  Esq.  by  Cecily

said  John  Dorward,  due  unto  him  when  he  was  one  of  his 
councillors,  grants  his  royal  license,  dated  June  2nd,  in  the  same 
year,  to  erect  a  perpetual  chantry  at  Stanway,  of  one  chaplain 
to  pray  for  his  soul,  and  the  souls  of  his  ancestors,  and  to  give 
and  assign  unto  the  chaplain  and  his  successors,  a  mansion  or 
place,  built  by  the  said  John,  upon  a  piece  of  glebe  land  con- 
taining  one  acre,  adjoining  the  churchyard  of  the  same  church, 
and  7/.  rent,  issuing  out  of  the  manor  of  Stanway  and  all  lands 
of  the  said  John  in  Stanway.  He  was  a  Serjeant-at-law  and 
Speaker  of  the  House  of  Commons  during  the  above  reign,  and 
resided  at  Dorward  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Bocking,  the  family 
seat  for  many  generations,  where  he  founded  an  hospital,  for  the 
maintenance  of  which  King  Henry  VI.  granted  him  a  license  to 
assign  his  inanor  of  Tendring,  with  other  lands  and  tenements 
in  Essex,  that  were  not  held  of  the  Crown.

William  and  Richard  inherited  his  property  in  right  of  the  said 
marriage.  The  former  had  issue  Elizabeth,  their  sole  heir,  who 
married  Thomas  Foderingey,  of  Brockley,  in  SuiFolk,  Esq. ;  and 
the  latter  left  an  only  daughter,  Margaret,  who  married  Sir 
John  Wingfield,  of  Letheringham,  in  the  same  county,  Knt. «

DESCRIPTION    OF   AN    ANCIENT   REGISTER   OF   THE    PARISH     OF 
ASTON-SUB-EDGE,    CO.    GLOUCESTER ;    WITH  EXTRACTS. 

In  the  parish  chest  in  the  church  of  Mickleton  in  Glonccstershire 
there  is  preserved  a  parchment  volume  of  quarto  size,  contaiuing  a 
Register  of  Baptisms,  Marriages,  and  Burials,  from  a  date  so  remote  as 
1339.  Notwithstanding  the  place  of  its  present  deposit,  the  register 
belongs  evidently  to  the  adjoining  parish  of  Aston-sub-Edge.  Indeed 
there  may  yet  be  traced  in  verj'  pale  ink,  on  the  outer  cover,  the  words 
"  Aston  Register,"  over  which,  in  a  later  hand,  and  in  darker  ink,  the 
indorsement  "  Mickleton  Register  "  has  been  written.  The  transfer  of 
the  book  from  the  church  to  which  it  properly  belongs,  may  be  ac- 
counted  for  by  the  fact  that  the  two  parishes  were  for  many  vears 
served  by  the  same  clerg)man,  and  that  he  resided  at  Mickleton. 

The  early  entries  iu  this  register  are  in  a  bold  German  letter,  in  the 
Latin  language,  and  were  evidently  made  with  much  care  and  attention. 
They  are  preceded  by  the  following  general  heading  or  title  : 

**  Iniunciones  invictissimi  principis  et  regis  Henrici  octavi, 
ann°  r^ni  ei^  30°.  Anno  Dom  1539  non  tam  p  parvulis  bap- 
tizandis  qua  etiam  de  nuptiis  celebrandis  et  p  corporib^  sepe- 
liendis." 

The  first  entry  is, 

"  De  Baptismo.  Ann°  Domini  1539. 

1.  Inpris  Joliannes  Baker  suscepit  sacramentura  Baptismi  26° 
die  mensis  Januarii  An^  Dom.  1539,"  &c. 

It  proceeds  thus,  each  separate  entry  being  numbered,  and  is  exceed- 
ingly  well  kept,  under  each  of  its  three  heads,  for  the  first  fifty  years. 
After  this  period  the  entries  are  more  scanty,  are  ill  written,  the  colour 
of  the  ink  becomes  fainter,  and,  in  many  instances,  is  scarcely  legible. 
The  marriages  and  bnrials  are  headed  each  with  a  sort  of  engrossed 
title,  **  De  Matrimonio,"  and  "  De  sepultura  mortuorum." 

After  these  general  reraarks  on  the  volume,  a  few  extracts  will  not  be 
wbolly  without  interest,  more  especially  as  tbe  Porter  family,  from 
whom  sprung  Endymion  Porter,  the  faithful  attendant  of  Charles  the 
First,  were  for  many  geaerations  connected  with  the  parish  of  Aston-

Edmond  Porter,  gent.  died  upon  Fryday  the  12  of  ApriJl, 
and  was  buryed  at  Campden  the  next  day,  Anno  Dni  1622. 

These  are  the  only  verbatim  extracts  which  I  have  made  ;  the  follow- 
iog  is  a  mere  list  of  names  and  dates. 

BAPnsMS.     Thomas,  son  of  Nicholas  Porter,  14  Oct.  1587. 
Edmund,  s.  of  NichoUis,  30  Dec.  1588.

Cartwright,  daughter  of  Nicholas,  21  Nov.  1596. 
Dorita,  d.  of  Nicholas,  23  July  1599. 

These  are  all,  or  nearly  all,  the  notices  of  the  Porters. 

The  name  of  Endymion  Porter,  though  sought  for  with  great  dili- 
gence,  occurs  but  once,  and  that  in  one  of  the  worst  written  and  most 
careless  entries  in  the  whole  book.     It  is  as  foUows : — 

"  Villars  f  the  sonn  of  Endimion  Por?,  squire,  baptized." 

Here,  where  we  could  most  have  wished  it,  no  sponsors'  names  are 
given,  nor  even  a  date  ;  but  the  notice  is  preceded  and  foUowed  by  two 
entries,  dated  respectively  the  month  of  September  1 625,  and  Septem- 
ber  1626. 

Of  the  Overbury  family  I  have  extracted  the  following  entries :— 

Fol.  1  verso.  12.  Elizabeth  Ovburie  suscepit  sacramentum 
baptismatf  8°.  die  mensf  Octobris  1544. 

15.  Marie  O^burie  suscepit  sacramentum  baptismatf  8».  die 
mens(f  Martii  Ano  Dom.  ut  supra  [1544  ?]. 

17.  Nicholaius  Ovburie  suscepit  sacramentum  baptismatf  7". 
die  mensf  Maii  Ano  Dom.  ut  supra  [1544  ?]. 

Fol.  2.  26.  Grizigona  Ovburie  suscep*  sacramentu  Baptismi 
3°.  die  Maii  An»  Dom.  ut  supra  [1553]. 

'  The  Campden  r^;uter  goes  back  no  forther  than  the  3d  Oct.  1616. 

'  I  am  far  from  being  induced  to  conclude  that  this  baptism  took  place  at  Aston  • 
sub-Edge.  It  seems  to  haye  been  the  custom  to  record  marriages  and  burials  of 
persons  connected  with  the  parish  though  solemnized  elsewhere.  Witness  the  en- 
try  of  William  Porter's  burial  at  Campden. 

t  There  is  an  evident  mistake  in  regard  to  the  date  of  the  year  at  these  places. 
Ten  baptisms  from  No.  7  to  17  are  assi^ed  to  1544,  and  the  18th  is  dated  1651.

In  registering  marriages  of  parties,  the  expression  '*  susceperunt 
sacrameutum  matrimonii  "  is  used  iu  the  earlier  part  of  tbe  book,  and 
continued  to  a  period  as  late  as  1  Oth  of  February  1 602.  ^Vhether  it 
is  to  be  accounted  for  from  the  imperfect  scholarship  of  the  worthy  rec- 
tors,  or  whether  the  Hght  of  the  Reformation  was  singularly  late  in 
reaching  this  retired  parish^  I  cannot  decide. 

Tbe  first  entry  among  the  bnrials  is, 

**  Joh«8  Harris,  obiit  16  die  mensis  Januarii,  Ano  Dni  1539." 

At  fol.  4.  verso.  "  Dna  Joanna  Cradocke  vidua  sepelitur

"  Tliomas  Selier,  Rector  ecclesiae  de  Aston  Subedge,  obiit  20 
die  Octobris  et  23  die  mensis  ejusdem  sepultus  fuit  in  ecclesia 
de  Willersey,  Ano  Doni  1 606. 

"  Margarett  the  wife  of  Thomas  Fawset,  parson  of  Aston 
Subedge,  dyed  the  22nd  day  of  January,  and  was  buried  at 
Norton  Underedge  the  next  day,  1624." 

No  entry  occurs  from  tbe  16th  of  April  1640  to  "  the  fowerth"  day 
of  December  1661. 

"  Anna  Warburton  vidua  (olim  uxor  Christophoro  Cragg, 
deinde  Gulielmo  Warburton  incumbentibus  de  St.  Bury),  sepulta 
fuit  a  maestissimo  suo  genero  Franc^*  Mason,  et  hujus  ecctiae 
incumbente ;  moriebatur  Feb.  29,  sepulta  March  2." 

It  S4)pears  that  Mason  was  strict  in  tbe  exercise  of  bis  jnrisdiction 
as  to  interments  in  his  churcbyard,  witness  tbe  two  foUowing  entries :— 

"  Maria  Read  filia  Thomae  Read  primo  in  coemeterio  Astoni- 
ensi  fuit  sepulta  decimo  primo  die  Julii  1673,  venia  prius  petita 
et  habita  a  F^  Mason,  ibid.  incumbente.  July  11,  1673." 

**  Susanna,  daughter  of  Richard  Bumpas,  sen.  was  buried  in 


284  REGISTER    OF    ASTON-SUB-EDGE, 

this  churchyard  by  the  permission  and  appointment  where  of 
Fr.  Mason,  Recf.  March  29,  1683. 

"  Francis  Mason,  late  Rector  of  this  parish  of  Aston  Subedge, 
was  buried  in  the  chancell  of  the  said  parish.       Nov.  24,  1686." 

Fol,  1 9,  verso,  is  subscribed :  "  F.  Crewe,  Minister  et  Rector  ibi- 
dera,"  and  the  entry  immediately  foUowing  is  dated  Sept.  2 1 ,  1 686, 
two  months  prcvious  to  the  date  of  the  register  of  Mason  s  burial.  It 
is  probable,  therefore,  that  he  may  have  resigned,  especially  as  he  is 
registered  as  '•  late  "  Rector. 

"  The  Reverend  Mr.  John  Bloxam,  Rector  of  this  parish, 
dyed  on  the  23rd  of  ApriU,  and  was  buryed  on  y^  25th  of  Aprill 
1724,  in  this  chancel." 

The  Bible,  novv  used  in  the  reading  desk,  was  his  gift,  and  is  thus 
inscribed  :  '*  The  gift  of  John  Bloxam,  Rector  of  Aston  Subedge,  Anno 
Domini  1713." 

"  The  Reverend  Mr.  Daniell  Slater  was  psented  to  this  Rec- 

tory  by  Richard  Morgan,  of ,  Esq.  and  inducted   into   this 

parish  church  by  Mr.  John  Beawne,  Recf^  of  St.  Bury,  on  the 
sixth  day  of  August  1724,  in  the  psence  of  Richard  Graves, 
Anth.  Bloxam,  and  John  Bloxam." 

These  two  last  entries  are  from  the  second  register,  which  remains  in 
the  church  of  Aston-sub  -Edge. 

Araong  the  names  occurring  in  the  old  register,  with  the  notice  of 
which  we  set  out,  the  most  prevailing  is  that  of  Bloxam  ;  frora  1551  to 
1/15  it  occurs  in  every  page.  At  present  there  is  not  an  iudividual  of 
that  name  resident  in  the  parish. 

That  of  Porter  is  most  general  after  this. 

The  succession  of  Rectors,  continued  from  the  list  in  Bigland's  Glou- 
cestershire,  p.  87,  is  as  foUovvs  : — 

Thomas  Lloyd,  M.A,  presented  by  Lord  Harrovvby  in  1782,  dicdat 
High  Wycombe  in  October  1815.  His  son  Charles  Lloyd  became 
Bishop  of  Oxford. 

CuAHLEs  OsMOND  OsMOND,  S.  C.  L.  of  Triuity  CoUege,  Oxford, 
instituted  4th  March  1816,  died  at  Tiverton,  iu  Devonshire,  in  Septem- 
ber  1830.  There  is  a  monumental  tablet  to  his  raemoryat  the  extremity 
of  the  south  aisle  of  St.  Peter'8  church  in  Tiverton, 

JoHN  Besly,  D.C.L.  late  Fellow  of  Balliol  CoUege,  at  present  holds

as  Curate  for  opwards  of  fifty  years,  down  to  the  tiine  of  his  decease. 
April  17,  1839.  His  father,  Jacob  Mould,  officiated  many  years  before 
hiin,  residingat  Ebrington,  which  parish  he  served  together  with  Aston- 
sub-Edge  aiid  Pebworth. 

The  present  patron  is  the  Earl  of  Harrowby,  who  possesses  extensive 
property  in  the  adjoining  and  encircling  parish  of  Weston-sub-Edge.  His 
Lordships  father  contributed  largely  to  the  rebuilding  of  the  church  of 
Aston-sub-Edge  in  1794,  and  was  instruinental  in  procuring  an  Inclo- 
sure  bill,  under  which  the  tithes  were  comrnuted,  by  means  of  an  aug- 
mentation  of  the  Rector's  glebe,  which  originally  contained  only  30 
acres,  3  roods,  8  perches,  to  which  was  then  added  73  acres,  23 
roods.  An  allotment  of  about  an  acre  was  made  to  the  parish  clerk* 
and  a  piece  of  ground  vested  in  the  churchwarden  and  overseer,  for 
the  use  of  the  poor.  The  whole  parish  scarcely  exceeds  700  acres ; 
now  vested  in  the  following  proprietors  :  The  manor  and  three  farms  in 
John  Maxwell  Steele,  Esq.  eldest  son  of  Sir  Richard  Steele,  of  Hamp- 
stead,  co.  Dublin,  Bart,  in  right  of  his  wife,  Elizabeth-Anne,  eldest 
daughter  and  heiress  of  J.  Graves,  of  Mickleton,  Esq.  j  one  farm  in  the 
Earl  of  Harrowby ;  the  glebe  as  above  stated  ;  sundry  detached  closes  of 
land  in  Joseph  and  John  Gardner ;  a  few  tenements  and  cottages  in 
Such,  Whateley,  and  Farleigh.  In  1839  six  names  of  freeholders  were 
registered  to  vote  for  the  connty.

HARKSTEAD,    AND    LIVERMERE    PARVA,    SUFFOLK. 

AMPTON,    IN    THEDWASTRE    HUNDRED. 

This  manor  had  both  freeholders  and  copyholders  belonging 
thereto,  and  there  was  a  Court  Baron  incident  unto  the  same, 
but  not  a  Court  Leet.  The  advowson  now  is,  and  always  was, 
appendant  to  the  lordship,  and  endowed  with  the  great  and 
small  tithes. 

In  21  Ric.  II.  Thomas  Hethe  and  Richard  Hethe  released  to 
Sir  William  Bardewell,  Knt.  and  Margaret  his  wife,  all  their 
right  and  title  to  this  manor  and  advowson,  which  they  lately 
had  of  the  feoffment  of  John  Strange  of  Brockley,  in  Suffolk, 
which  late  were  Edmonds'  of  Ingham,  in  the  same  county. 

The  family  of  le  Bole  afterwards  inherited ;  from  whom  it 
passed  by  marriage  to  the  Cockets,  for  an  account  of  whom  see

Anciently  the  lands  in  this  parish  consisted  principally  of 
heath  and  bruery,  or  sheepwalks.  John  Clere,  the  person  to 
whora  the  above  lease  was  granted,  was  owner  of  a  small  estate 
here,  and  was  son  of  Edward  Clerys,  or  Clere,  a  tenant  also 
of  this  manor,  whose  last  will  and  testament  is  annexed  : —

In  the  12th  year  of  the  same  reign,  the  whole  manor,  with 
all  the  lands,  tenements,  &c.  were  leased  at  20  marks  per  an- 
num.  As  this  lease  differs  somewhat  from  the  former,  and 
shews  the  terms  upon  which  lands  were  held  at  that  early  period, 
we  are  induced  to  transcribe  it  also  :

Sir  Roger  Darcy's  name  occurs  in  deeds  relating  to  this  manor 
in  the  latter  part  of  the  reign  of  Henry  the  Seventh.  He  mar- 
ried  Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Sir  Henry  W^entworth,  second  son 
of  Sir  Iloger  Wentworth  of  Nettlestead,  in  this  county;  and 
probably  held  this  manor  in  right  of  that  marriage.  Sir  Roger 
died  in  1508,  and  his  widow  re-married  to  Sir  Thomas  Wynd- 
ham,  Vice-Admiral,  and  one  of  the  Privy  Council  to  Henry  VHI. 
This  accounts  for  their  grant  of  the  preceding  lease,  which,  on 
the  death  of  Sir  Thomas  Wyndham,  was  transferred  by  the 
other  parties  to  Edward  Coket,  Esq.  and  held  by  him  and  An- 
thony  his  son,  until  34  Hen.  VIII.,  when  the  latter  resigned  all 
claims  held  by  virtue  thereof  to  Sir  Thomas  Darcy,  Knt.  son 
and  heir  of  Dame  Elizabeth  Wyndham,  now  Countess  of  Bath, 
by  Sir  Roger  Darcy,  her  first  husband. 

By  an  indenture  dated  the  lOth  June,  in  the  same  year,  Sir 
Thomas  Darcy  bargains  and  sells  unto  John  Crofte,  Esq.  "  all 
that  the  manor  of  Ampton  w»  thappurtenncC  in  the  countie  of 
SufF',  w»  the  advoyson  of  the  pishechurche  of  Ampton,  and  all 
those  mesuagys,  land^,  tenementf,  rentf,  revcions,  and  seruicf, 
libties  of  folde,  and  sliepis  pasture,  and  other  hereditaments 
and  comodities,  w*  ther  appurtennce,  in  the  townes  and  fildf  of 
Ampton,  Tymworth,  Ingham,  Lyumer  magna,  Ly vmer  pua,  Bar- 
ton,  and  Culford,  in  the  said  countie,  whiche  have  ben  at  eny 
tyme  byfore  the  date  herof  taken  or  estemed  to  be  eny  pt  or 
member  of  the  said  manor  whiche  the  said  Sir  Thomas  at  the 
date  herof  hathe  in  possession  or  revcon,  or  in  any  wyse  hathe 
right  or  ys  intitled  vnto,"  for  which  the  said  John  Crofte 
"  couenntith  to  paye  or  cause  to  be  paid  to  the  said  Sir  Thom"s 
the  some  of  fyve  himdred  markf,  twenty  pownds  s?linge." 

It  appears  by  a  letter  of  one  Anthony  Ashe  written  unto  Wil- 
liam  Spalding,  that  this  manor  with  the  advowson,  in  4  &  5 
Phil.  &  Mar.  were  holden  of  the  Queen  as  of  the  Barony  of 
St.  Edmund,  by  the  fourth  part  of  a  knight's  fee ;  that  the  mes- 
suage  called  Coket's,  forty  acres  of  land,  two  acres  of  meadow, 
ten  acres  of  pasture,  and  four  acres  of  wood,  were  holden  of  the 


298  TOPOGRAPHICAL    NOTICES   OF 

Queen  as  of  the  hundred  of  Blackbourn  by  fealty;  and  that 
the  tenement  called  the  Chantry-house  was  holden  of  Ilichard 
Codington,  *  of  Ixworth,  Esq.  by  fealty. 

This  estate  continued  in  the  Crofts  family  until  the  42nd  Eliz. 
when  it  passed  to  that  of  Coell.  The  indenture  by  which  Fran- 
cis  Croft,  of  West  Stow,  in  SufFolk,  conveys  this  manor,  advow- 
son,  &c.  to  Thomas  Coell,  of  Bury  St.  Edmund's,  gent.  bears 
date  the  6th  of  September  in  that  year. 

Mr.  Coell  resided  upon  his  estate  here,  and  in  1609  married 
Susan,  daughter  of  Thomas  Jermyn,  of  Depden,  Esq.  a  mem- 
ber  of  the  Jermyn  family,  who  were  owners  of  considera- 
ble  property  at  Depden,  in  this  county,  which  Mr.  Coell  after- 
wards  inherited,  and  where  he  and  his  descendants  continued  to 
reside  until  the  death  of  Thomas  Coell,  of  Depden  Hall,  Esq. 

"  Against  the  north  wall  of  the  chancel  of  Ixworth  church,  Suifolk,  is  a  tahle 
monument,  ornamented  with  shields  in  panels,  and  the  same  shields  on  brass  are 
fixed  on  the  wall  within  a  circular  arch  ahove,  together  with  figures  of  a  man  and 
hiswife,  and  the  following  remarkahle  inscription: — "  Here  lyethe  buryed  the  bo- 
dyes  of  Richard  Codington,  Esquyer,  theFirstTemporallLorde  of  thisManor  of  Ip-

(This  inscription  is  imperfectly  printed  under  the  parish  of  Snetterton  in  Blome- 
field's  Norfolk,  i.  425,  and  is  there  erroneously  stated  to  be  in  Great  Livermere 
church.)  The  brasses,  containing  the  figures,  are  eleven  inches  high.  The  parties 
are  represented  kneeling  before  desks,  with  their  hunds  in  prayer  ;  the  man  bare- 
headed,  in  a  gown  furred  in  front,  and  having  a  high  collar  of  fur,  and  long  hanging

Surrey,  ii.  598,  erroneously  styles  this  person  Sir  Richard  de  Codington  ;  there  is  no 
doubt,  however,  that  he  was  the  representative  of  an  ancient  family  in  that  county, 
deriving  its  name  from  the  manor  and  parish  of  Cuddington,  and  that  he  was  tempted 
by  the  offer  of  several  valuable  manors  in  the  eastem  counties,  to  relinquish  his  an- 
cestral  domain  to  King  Henry  theEighth,  who  erected  thereon  his  far-famcd  palace 
of  Nonesuch.  (See  the  Gentleman's  Magazine,  New  Series,  vol.  VIII.  p.  135.)

vised  to  Margaret  his  wife,  during  the  minority  of  George  his

In  the  39th  of  the  same  reign,  Mr.  Penning  purchased  of  Sir 
John  Smith  the  manor  of  Little  Badow,  in  Essex.  His  ances- 
tors  were  early  seated  at  Kettleburgh,  in  this  county;  they

dented  ermine.

Colston  Hall  in  Baddingham,  and  was  interred  in  the  chaucel  of 
Kettleburgh  church.

Mr.  Penning  resided  latterly  at  Ipswich,  and,  dying  there  in 
1630,  was  interred  in  the  chancel  of  the  parish  church  of  Sl 
Matthew,  in  that  town ;  on  the  north  side  of  which  is  a  hand-

XXV. 

ON  THE  ARCHDEACONRY  OF  ST.  ALBAN's  ;  WITH  A  LIST  OF 
ARCHDEACONS  FROM  1415  TO  1539,  BEING  ANTECEDENT  TO 
THE    LIST    GIVEN   BY    NEWCOURT. 

The  subjoined  list  of  Archdeacons  of  St.  Alban'8  has  been  collected 
froin  the  Registers  of  Wills  and  the  Act-books  of  the  Archidiaconal 
Court  of  St.  Alban's.  The  catalogue  of  the  Archdeacons,  as  given  in 
Newcourt's  Repertoriura,  contains  no  other  names,  than  those  which 
are  to  be  met  vvith  in  the  Register  books  of  the  diocese  of  London,  since 
the  Reformation.  The  present  list  carries  the  account  of  the  succession 
in  the  Archdeaconry  as  far  back  as  the  year  1  tl5,  and  shews  the  ex- 
tent  of  the  mistake  made  by  Newcourt,  when  he  ascribes  the  constitu- 
tion  of  the  Archdeaconry  to  the  Bishop  of  London,  and  assigns  no 
earlierdate  to  it,  than  that  of  the  annexation  of  the  jurisdiction  of  the 
Abbey  to  the  diocese  of  London  in  the  4th  Edward  VI. 

It  may  perhaps  be  impossible  to  ascertain,  at  what  tirae  the  first  ap- 
pointment  of  an  Archdeacon  as  au  officer  under  the  Abbot  of  St. 
Alban's  took  place ;  we  learn,  however,  from  Matt.  Paris  in  Vitis 
Abbat.  p.  60,  ed.  1640,  that  in  1 129  there  was  an  Archdeacon  at  St. 
Alban'8  named  Radulphus,  and  that  during  the  coutroversy  relative  to 
the  Abbey's  being  exempt  from  the  Bishops  of  Lincoln  (A.D.  1 1 60), 
the  jurisdiction  of  the  Archdeacon  was  pleaded  in  proof  of  ancient 
exemption.

have  receiued  severall  comaunds  from  his  Ma^ie  to  endeauo""  the

This  concludes  the  letters,  &c.  addressed  to  or  written  by  the  Ottley 
family  during  the  reign  of  Charles  I.  No  sooner,  however,  was  Crom- 
well  dead  than  immediate  means  of  communication  were  taken  by  the 
gentry  of  Shropshire  with  Charles  II.  for  his  restoration;  and  the 
following  Commission,  the  original  of  which  is  on  vellum,  sealed  with 
the  Kings  seal,  is,  perhaps,  one  of  the  earliest  granted  by  him.

of  Colonel  in  the  King's  service,  was  an  affable,  expert,  and  brave  soldier,  cele-

losing  his  estate  and  liberty,  and  narrowly  escaping  with  his  life.  Through  the 
assistance  of  friends  he  re-purchased  the  first,  and  the  last  was  preserved  and  his 
liberty  regained  solely  by  the  death  of  Cromwell.  An  unpublished  poem,  entitled

8on  were  diametrically  opposed  to  each  other  in  politics ;  the  former  siding  with 
the  Parliament,  bat  dying  at  the  very  commencement  of  that  troublesome  period, 
and  the  latter  espousing  the  caase  of  the  King,  for  his  zeal  in  support  of  whom  he

I  thanke  y^  for  y»"»  of  the  6^\  wcb  gives  mee  aduertisem*  of 
the  meetinge  of  those  factious  Ministers,  wcb  gives  greet  cause  of 
jealousye  at  this  tyme  when  we  have  bin  soe  freshly  alarmed 
out  of  Ireland,  not  w^kjut  great  probabillitye  of  a  Correspond- 
ence  betweene  those  unquiett  Spiritts  there  &  those  of  the  same 
principles  here ;  tis  belieued  likewise  here  that  there  was  a  de- 
signe  lately  for  y«  surprize  of  Chester  Castle,  &  by  w*  Geo:  Ho: 
wrytes  to  mee  this  last  poste,  I  beheue  noe  less  for  Shrewsbury. 
To  secure  those  Ministers  at  present  I  thinke  not  soe  Conve- 
nient,  in  regard  there  is  noe  proof  ag*  them,  &  we  shall  not  have 
wherewli  to  ansr  their  Complaints,  &  we  doubt  speedy  desires  of 
enlargem*,  wct  yet  to  grant  w^  make  tlie  action  seeme  to  haue 
bin  w'>out  reason.  My  advice  to  you  therefore  is,  that  yu  en- 
deauour  to  imploy  some  person  that  has  bin  formerlye  of  the 
brotherhood  wlioni  yu  can  confide  in,  to  mingle  himseJfe  w*»  them

at  their  next  meetinge  &  to  giue  yu  an  account  of  their  designes» 
&  if  yu  finde  them  bad  to  secure  them  ali ;  if  yu  cannot  engage 
such  a  person,  then  to  learn  by  y^  best  means  yu  can  when  their 
next  meeting  Is,  &  when  their  company  is  fuU  to  take  ye  Mar- 
shall  &  2  or  3  men  wh  you  &  goe  in  amongst  them  &  know  of 
them  the  cause  of  their  meetinge,  &  if  they  doe  not  give  yu  good 
satisfaction,  to  take  a  note  of  their  names,  letting  them  know 
that  they  haue  given  occasion  of  jealousye  by  their  often  &  nu- 
merous  meetings,  &  demanding  of  those  that  reside  in  the  Towne 
will  be  engaged  for  y«  appearance  of  the  rest ;  if  soe,  you  may 
dismisse  tliem  for  the  present  if  you  see  cause,  &  whin  a  day  or 
2  may  get  2  Deputy  Liueten^s  more  to  signe  a  Warrant  to  the 
Marshall  for  their  comitm*,  w^^  in  case  they  meet  any  more  I 
aduise  be  done ;  but  if  yu  can  by  any  meanes  learne  that  they 
haue  any  seditious  or  treasonable  designes  on  foot,  &  are  able 
by  any  testimony  to  make  it  out,  I  haue  written  to  G.  Hosier 
ihat  in  that  case  hee  bee  aydinge  to  yu  w'  his  souldiers  for  their

quainted  the  King  with  y«  particulars  of  it,  who  sayes  it  is  true 
that  S""  Godfrey  Copley  hath  sent  one  up  to  him  to  acquaint  him 
wl»  y*  same  discouery,  &  that  y^  intended  risinge  was  to  bee  on

don;  now  his  Ma^'"  intelligencers  here  (wct  are  very  good) 
givinge  him  noe  aduertisem^  of  any  preparations  in  this  place  for

of  danger  at  home,  they  neede  only  give  orders  to  Capt.  Prince  « 
&  Capt.  Jones  f  of  Ludlow  lo  haiie  their  Companyes  in  a  readi- 
nesse,  that  the  Towne  Gates  bee  shut  for  a  forthnight  or  some

hope  will  bee  sufficient,  without  putting  the  Countrey  to  any 
further  charge  in  callinge  the  militia  together ;  for,  if  those  2 
Townes  bee  secured,  I  thinke  wee  should  not  bee  ill  satisfyed  to

then  ye  present  intelligence,  it  is  left  their  discretions  to  act  as

pedite  the  settling  of  the  militia  as  much  as  may  bee  accord- 
ing  to  y^  Acts  &  to  hasten  yr  Generall  muster,  least  y^  yeare

of  the  Hall,  Shrewsbury,  Knt.  who  had  to  compound  for  his  loyalty  by  payment 
of  750/.  Walter  Prince,  eldest  son  of  Sir  Richard,  in  opposition  to  the  principles 
of  his  father  and  brother,  joined  the  Parliamentary  army,  in  which  he  was  pro- 
moted  to  the  rank  of  Colonel  of  Horse,  but  was  slain  at  Rowton  Heath  near 
Chester,  Sept.  24,  1645.

f  Richard  Salway  of  Richard's  Castle,  co.  Salop  and  Hereford,  Esq.  ancestor  of

sented  the  county  of  Worcester  in  Parliament  1653,  and  Westmoreland  1659;  his 
wife  was  sister  to  Edmund  Waring  before  noticed.  The  warrants  alluded  to  in 
this  letter  are  all  dated  Oct.  25,  1663,  the  first  is  addressed  "  To  the  Lord  New- 
port,  or  in  his  absence  to  any  of  the  Deputy  Lievtenants  of  the  county  of  Salop," 
is  signed  "  Henry  Bennett,"  and  directs  them  "  to  seize  Richard  Salway,  here- 
tofore  called  Major  Salway,  w*"  his  papers  and  writings,  and  him  in  close  Custody 
carry  to  the  Tower  of  London."  The  second,  "  To  S'  Edward  Brett,  or  in  his

are  therefore  eyther  to  send  an  officer  wh  half  a  dozen  horse  to

some  of  his  Company  &  seize  him  &  bring  hira  to  Shrewsburye 
to  bee  sent  thence,  but  I  thinke  y«  readyer  way  will  bee  to  let 
4  of  yc  same  Horse  that  seize  hira  carrye  him  streight  away ; 
they  are  to  bring  him  to  S*  Alban's,  where  S^"  Ed.  Brett  lyes  w^

haue  order  given  that  hee  bee  permitted  to  stay  2  dayes  in  Lud- 
low  to  prouide  himself  of  conveniences  for  his  journey,  &  that 
Capt.  Jones  set  a  guard  upon  him  while  hee  is  there.  The

Most  of  the  nobility  and  gentry  throughout  the  kingdom  who  espoused 
the  Royal  canse  were  despoiled  of  a  very  considerable  portion  of  their 
property,  and  some  of  them  of  the  whole,  during  the  usurpation  of 
Parhament  and  Cromwell,  and  nuraerous  were  the  individuals  in  every 
county  who  in  consequence  thereof  were  reduced  from  affluence  either 
to  great  distress  or  to  comparative  poverty.  And  in  addition  to  the 
heavy  sums  in  the  shape  of  composition  fixed  upon  tbem  for  their  delin- 
quency,  as  loyalty  was  then  called,  Cromwell  raised  a  new  and  standing 
mihtia  of  horse  in  every  county,  the  burden  of  maintaining  which  he 
fixed  upon  the  royaUsts  by  a  tax  of  decimation,  or  the  tentli  of  the  re- 
maining  part  of  their  property.  Shortly  after  the  Restoration  steps. 
were  taken  for  the  rehef  of  the  numerous  officers  who  had  not  only 
fought  and  bled  in  the  cause  of  their  unfortunate  monarch,  but  who, 
from  the  circumstances  above  mentioned,  had  been  reduced  to  a  state  of 
indigence,  and  in  the  13th  and  14tb  Cbarlcs  II.  1661,  1662,  tvvo  Acts- 
of  Parhament  were  passed  for  that  purpose,  the  one  for  "  the  distri- 
bution  of  tbreescore  tbousand  pounds  amongst  tbe  truly  loyal  and  indi- 
gent  Commissioned  Officers,"  &c.  and  the  other  for  "  the  relief  of  poor 
raaimed  OflRcers  and  Soulders  who  have  faithfuUy  served  his  Majesty 
and  bis  Royal  fatber  in  the  late  Wars."    By  the  latter,  power  was  given

REGISTER    OF   BURIALS    IN   WESTMINSTER   ABBEY. 

The  Burials  in  the  Ck>llegiate  Church  of  St.  Peter,  Westminster,  are 
preserved  in  the  same  manuscript  from  which  the  Marriages  and  Baptisms 
given  in  the  preceding  pages  (pp.  162 — 174,  and243 — 248)  weretaken. 
Inscriptions  upon  the  monuments,  tablets,  and  grave-stones  to  the  me- 
mory  of  many  individuals  vvhose  bnrials  are  here  recorded,  will  be  found 
in  Dart's  History  of  the  Abbey,  as  well  as  in  Neale  and  Brayley's 
History,  but  a  continual  reference  to  the  pages  of  those  works  would 
have  extended  unnecessarily  the  notes,  which  are  confined  to  particulars 
identifying  the  several  parties.  From  the  discrepancy  in  some  cases 
between  the  years  assigned  to  the  burials  and  the  dates  supplied  by  the 
inscriptions  frora  the  monuments  or  gravestones,  as  well  as  from  the 
number  of  burials  omitted,  it  is  clear  that  the  early  part  of  the  register 
is  a  compilation  after  the  Restoration,  and  contains  only  such  as  Mr. 
Tynchare  states  "  could  be  found  in  imperfect  books,  and  such  as  have 
been  carefuUy  taken  notice  of  since  the  happy  Restoration  of  his  Ma- 
jesty  KingCharles  the  Second"  (see  p.  162).  Mr.  Philip  Tynchare  was 
installed  11  Feb.  1660,  and  his  burial  occurs  in  1673.

Gundred — William . 


If  Mortiraer  were  really  the  brother  of  Earl  Warren,  then  the 
opposite  parts  they  took,  as  in  Dugdale,  p.  73,  seems  to  require 
some  observation. 

Dugdale  (p.  74)  says  that  Gundred,  wife  of  the  first  William 
de  Warenne,  was  sister  of  Gherbode,  a  Fleming  (to  whom  the 
Conqueror  gave  the  Earldom  of  Chester).  Watson,  and  almost 
all  the  pedigrees  I  have  seen,  call  her  daughter  of  William  the 
Conqueror,  and  the  charter  to  Lewes  (Watson,  i.  25)  calls  her 
the  daughter  of  Queen  Maud.  I  therefore  feel  something  hke 
doubt  whether  she  might  not  have  been  daughter  in  law  to  the 
Conqueror  by  his  wife's  quondam  husband.  There  appears  a 
striking  distinction  in  that  charter  of  WiHiam  second  Earl  War- 
ren,  viz.  "  pro  salute  Diii  mei  Wmi  r  qui  me  in  Anglicam  ter- 


ADDITIONS    TO    DUGDALE's    BARONAGE.  379 

ram  adduxit,  et  pro  salute  Dne  mee  Matildis  Kegine  matris 
uxoris  tnee^  et  p  salute  Dni  mei  Will^i  R  filij  sui,  &c.  Had 
William  been  her  father,  I  can't  find  any  reason  for  making 
such  a  distinction  as  that  of  describing  the  Queen  as  the  mother. 
ergo  q. 

Brooke  calls  her  fifth  daughter  of  King  William,  and  is  not 
contradicted  by  Vincent ;  but  she  is  not  mentioned  in  a  note 
written  by  Vincent,  in  vvhich  he  enumerates  five  daughters. 

P.  82^,  1.  10,  after  "  annum,"  make  a  note.  The  record  here 
referred  to  does  not  prove  the  fact  of  a  divorce  having  taken 
place ;  it  only  proves  that  the  King  had  "  a  la  requeste  John  de 
Garenne  Counte  de  Surr.  graunte  et  ottroye  q  le  dit  Counte 
puisse  seure  en  la  Court  Cristien  et  en  lieus  convenables  cause 
de  divortz  vers  Dame  Johne  de  Bars  nre  niece  en  totes  les  ma- 
neres,"  &c,  and  that  in  case  of  divorce  being  obtained,  the  Earl 
agreed  to  give  to  the  said  Joan  within  a  quarter  of  a  year  after 
such  divorce  celebrated  and  pronounced  {celehre  et  pronuncie) 
740  marks  a  year  for  her  hfe  out  of  his  lands  in  the  towns  of 
Graham  and  Gretwell :  but  that  no  such  divorce  did  really  take 
place  has  been  sufficiently  shown  already  :  however,  a  few  more 
proofs  may  be  added. 

Upon  the  deposition  of  King  Edward  the  Second,  in  the  20th 
year  of  his  reign  (eJeven  years  after  the  permission  to  sue  for  the 
divorce  had  been  granted),  the  Great  Seal  of  England  was  deli- 
vered  to  the  Bishop  of  Norwich  (to  be  keeper  thereof)  by  the 
Queen  and  the  Prince,  in  the  Queen's  chamber,  within  the 
Abbey  of  Cirencester,  on  Sunday  in  the  feast  of  St.  Andrew  the 
Apostle,  in  the  presence  of  Roger  Mortimer,  Joan  Countess  of 
Warren,  &c.  &c. » 

In  a  grant  from  King  Edward  the  Third,  in  the  llth  year  of 
his  reign,  to  William  Earl  of  Salisbury  of  1000  marks  per  an- 
num,  it  is  expressly  provided  that  the  payment  of  800  thereof  is 
to  cease  at  such  time  as  he  shall  become  possessed  of  the  castle 
and  manor  of  Troubrigg,  and  certain  other  manors  which  John 
de  Warren,  Earl  of  Surrey,  and  Joan  his  wife  held  for  the  term 
of  their  Jives,  witli  reversion  to  the  said  Earl  of  Salisbury  "  post 
decessum  dictorum  Comitis  Warrene  et  Joanne."  ^

In  the  inquisition  after  her  death,  the  jurors  say  that  she  held 
fcr  term  of  her  Ufe,  by  grant  from  the  King,  the  manors  of  Trou- 
bridge,  Ambresbury,  Wintersborne,  and  Aldeborne,  part  of  the

It  would  be  waste  of  time  to  say  any  more  about  a  pre-con- 
tract  with  Maud  de  Nerford,  or  a  marriage  with  Isabella  de 
Houland.  He  married  Joan  de  Bars  in  33  Edw.  I.  She  became 
his  widow  and  received  dower  in  21  Edw.  III.;  she  died  his 
widow  in  35  Edw.  III.;  the  lands  which  the  King  had  given  to 
her  and  her  husband  jointly  for  their  iives,  with  reversion  to 
Montacute  Earl  of  Saiisbury,  remained  in  her  possession  to  lier 
death,  and  then  passed  to  Montacute  according  to  the  grant.

•*  In  Watson's  Memoirs  of  the  House  of  Warren,  theWarrens  of  Wirmegay  are 
made  to  descend  from  Reginald,  second  son  of  the  first  Earl  Warren ;  but  a  com- 
parison  of  dates  will,  I  think,  show  that  Mr.  Watson's  position  is  at  least  impro- 
bable,  almost  impossible. 

The  father  (according  to  Mr.  Watson)  of  Reginald  died  in  1089. 

His  father-in-Iaw  was  living  71  years  after,  in  1160. 

The  elder  brother  of  Reginald  was  dead  in  1135. 

Reginald  himself  was  certainly  living  37  years  after,  in  1172;  and  probably  50 
years  after,  viz.  in  1185,  as  William  his  son  pays  scutage  first  in  1186. 

William,  the  third  Earl,  nephew  of  Reginald,  died  in  1148. 

William,  the  son  of  Reginald,  60  years  after,  viz.  1208. 

The  descent,  as  itis  drawn  by  Dugdale,  is  not  liable  to  any  such  objection.

Page  83^,  line  21,  note.  In  Monasticon  Anglic.  vol.  il.  85, 
there  is  a  grant  from  this  Beatrix  to  the  monks  of  Southwark, 
by  which  it  appears  she  had  another  husband :  "  Ego  Beatrix 
filia  Willielmi  de  Warrenna,  post  mortem  viri  Dni  mei  Radulphi, 
dum  essem  in  viduitate  mea,"  &c.  &c.  Who  that  Ralph  was  I 
caunot  discover,  nor  is  it  perhaps  material,  as  all  her  inheritance 
went  to  her  issue  by  Bardolph.

Meschines. — Vol.  L  p.  89. 

P.  89.  This  article  is  imperfectly  stated,  and  not  according 
to  the  authorities  referred  to.  William  de  Meschines,  uncle 
{i.  e.  brother  of  the  father)  of  Ralph  the  first  Earl  of  Chester, 
was  lord  of  Coupland  by  the  gift  of  William  the  Conqueror. 
He  married  Cecilia  de  Rumelli,  Lady  of  Skipton  in  Craven,  and 
they  founded  the  Priory  of  Bolton  a°.  1 120,  e  to  which  they  gave 
the  church  of  Skipton,  with  its  chapel  of  Carlton,  and  all  the 
town  of  Emmesey.  They  had  issue  two  sons,  Ralph  and  Mat- 
thew,  who  both  died  issueless,  and  two  daughters,  Alice  and 
Avice.  Alice  was  the  wife  of  William  Fitz-Duncan  (which  Dun- 
can  was  a  natural  son  of  Malcolm  Can-mor,  King  of  Scotland), 
by  whom  she  had  one  son,  William  Lord  of  Egremont,  and 
three  daughters,  Cecily  Countess  of  Albemarle,  Amabilla  wife 
of  Reginald  de  Lucy,  and  Alice  first  of  Gilbert  Pipard,  and 
afterwards  of  Robert  de  Courtenay.  The  issue  of  Cecily  will  be 
found  under  the  title  of  Albemarle  ;  that  of  Amabilla  under 
LucY.     Alice  had  no  issue  by  Pipard  or  Courtenay.

King  Henry  L,  who  had  with  her  all  the  lordship  of  Harewood 
in  the  county  of  York,  and  their  issue  will  be  found  under

Peverell. — Vol.  I.  p.  436,  &c. 

It  does  not  appear  that  any  of  these  Peverells  were  summoned

of  them. 

Baynard. — Vol.  I.  p.  461. 

Amongst  the  writs  of  summons  for  6  and  7  Edw.  H.  are  three 
for  a  Robert  Banyard  (Baygnard)  :  but  in  this  article  there  is  no 
Robert,  and  therefore  I  have  nothing  to  add  to  it,  remembering 
only  to  introduce  Baynard  amongst  the  other  of  Dugdale's 
omitted  Baronies.

IH.  leaving  Hugh  de  St.  John,  his  son  and  heir,  nineteen  years 
of  age,  and  Isabel  his  wife,  daughter  of  Hugh  Courtenay,  sur- 
viving,  being  then  seised  jointly  with  the  said  Isabel  (of,  &c.  as 
in  line  33.)

Abrincis  sive  Avrenches. — Vol.  I.  p.  467. 

This  Barony  passed  entire  to  Hamon  de  Crevecoeur  by  mar-

daughters.f  Of  these  daughters  the  eldest,  Agnes,  married  to 
John  de  Sandwich  ;  the  second,  Isolda,  to  Nicholas  de  Lenham ;

Elena,  the  third,  to  Bertram  de  Crioll ;  and  Isabella,  the  fourth,

title  of  Crioll.

P.  471,  after  1.  70,  add,  This  Robert  was  summoned  to  Par- 
liament  from  27  Edw.  I.  till  his  death.  Alice,  his  sister  and  sole 
heir,  had  issue  by  each  of  her  husbands,  which,  as  they  were  all 
Peers,  will  be  found  under  their  respective  titles. 

Angus  Earldom. — Vol.  I.  p.  504. 

The  precise  tenure  of  this  as  an  English  Peerage  is  not  as- 
certained.     The  first  writ  of  summons  for  the  Earldom  is  25 
Edvv.  I.  and  the  person  then  summoned  had  been  previously 
called  to  23  and  24  Edw.  I.  only  as  a  Baron,  viz.  Gilbto  de 
Umfraville.     I  do  not  find  any  letters  patent,  nor  any  other 
document  prescribing  the  nature  of  the  inheritance,  or  limiting 
the  descent  to  the  heirs  male :  so  that,  as  far  as  my  information 
reaches,  it  appears  to  me  to  stand  precisely  upon  the  footing  of 
a   Barony  by  writ.     It  passed  in   regular  male  succession  for 
three  or  four  generations,  from  25  Edw.  I.  to  4  Ric.  II.  till  the 
death  of  Gilbert  the  last  Earl,  who  died  in  that  year.     He  left 
no  surviving  issue,  and  the  Inquisition  post  mortem  finds  Eleanor 
Tailboys,  the  daughter  of  his  sister  Elizabeth,  to  be  his  heir,  and 
forty  years  old.     It  is,  however,  quite  certain  that  he  had  two 
brothers,  one  of  whom,  named  Thomas,  survived  him  six  years, 
and  left  two  sons.  Here  then  is  an  instaiice  of  an  Earldom  ceasing 
without  any  defect  of  issue  from  the  first  Earl.     Thomas  above- 
named  died  ao.  10  Ric.  II.  leaving  a  son  of  the  same  name,  24 
years  old,  and  a  Knight.     This  latter  Thomas  left  a  son  named 
Gilbert,  and  five  daughters.  Gilbert  died  without  issue  ao.  9  Hen. 
V. ;  but  there  was  still  an  heir  maleof  the  body  of  the  first  grantee 
existing  in  Robert  de  Umfraville,  uncle  of  the  last  Gilbert.     This 


384  ADDITIONS    TO    DUGDALE's    BARONAGE. 

Robert  died  without  issue  a».  15  Hen.  VI.  and  then,  and  not 
before,  the  male  line  becanje  extinct.  Every  one  of  the  four 
males  above-mentioned  was  of  full  age,  and  competent  to  take 
the  succession,  at  the  time  when  it  devolved  upon  him,  but  nei- 
ther  of  them  enjoyed  it.  This  might  be  reasonably  accounted 
for  by  concluding  that  the  original  grant  extended,  according  to 
the  general  practice  of  that  age,  to  heirs  general :  but  the  dignity 
appears  to  have  ceased  altogether  from  the  death  of  Earl  Gilbert 
in  4  Ric.  II. 

This  case  seems  to  countenance  an  idea  which  is  frequently  to 
be  met  with  in  writers  upon  Peerage,  that  the  descent  of  ancient 
dignities  in  general  depended  chiefly  upon  the  will  of  the  Crown. 

MUSARD. — Vol.  I.  p.  512^. 

P.  513,  ].  7,  note.  The  Esc.  1  Edw.  I.  states  Nicholas  to  be

wards  appears,  by  Esc.  15  Edw.  I.  that  John,  the  son  of  Ralph, 
made  proof  of  his  age,  and  that  he  died  in  17  Edw.  I.  when  the 
same  Nicholas,  his  uncle,  was  found  to  be  his  heir,  forty  years 
old,  as  in  the  text.

found  that  about  eight  years  before  he  died  he  had  enfeoffed 
John  Lovell,  his  eldest  son,  in  his  manor  of  Tichmersh,  to  hold 
to  him  and  his  heirs  for  ever ;  and  that  the  said  John  the  son  was 
accordingly  seised  thereof  at  the  time  of  his  father's  death,  and 
was  then  twenty-two  years  old.  This  John,  the  son,  Dugdale 
says,  died  a^.  8  Edw.  II.  leaving  an  only  daughter,  Joan,  his 
heir,  only  two  years  of  age.  He  then  states  the  second  marriage 
of  the  widow,  and  proceeds  thus :  "  In  8  Edw.  III.  this  last 
mentioned  John  was,"  &c.  Now  the  John  last  mentioned  in  the 
text  died  in  8  Edw.  II.  and  does  not  appear  by  the  text  to  have 
left  any  son.  We  are  therefore  to  seek  for  the  father  of  this 
John  who  flourished  under  Edward  the  Third.  Although  the 
inquisition  referred  to  of  8  Edw.  II.  finds  that  John  Lovell,  then 
deceased,  held  the  manor  of  Tichmersh  in  his  demesne  as  of  fee, 
and  that  Joan  his  daughter  was  his  heir  only  two  years  of  age, 
and  says  nothing  about  a  son,  yet  the  pedigrees  in  the  College  of 
Arms  ascribe  to  him  a  son  John  by  the  said  Maud  Burnell ;  and 
the  inquisition,  after  the  death  of  John  de  Handlo,  his  mother's 
second  husband,  in  a°.  20  Edw.  Ill.n  states  that  John  Lovell,  son 
and  heir  of  John,  was  then  living  and  next  heir  to  the  said  Maud 
by  her  former  husband ;  a  fact  which  can  in  no  other  way  be  re- 
conciled  with  the  inquisition  of  8  Edw.  II.  but  by  supposing  him 
to  have  been  born  after  his  father's  death ;  and  thus  the  link  other- 
wise  wanting  in  the  regular  chain  of  descent  is  supphed,  and  the 
text  may  now  be  followed. 

Mem.  To  compose  an  entire  new  reading  for  the  text  from 
the  word  age  in  line  28  to  line  48  inclusive.  And  state  why  the 
Barony  of  Burnell  did  not  descend  to  Lovell  but  to  Handlo.

being  minors,  and  their  father,  Stephen  de  Baiocis,  holding  his 
lands  of  the  King  in  capite  per  Baroniam,  and  the  King  there- 
fore  having  the  custody  thereof,  and  also  of  the  heirs,  in  a».  34 
granted  that  custody  to  Elias  de  Rabel,  who  having  himself 
married  Maud,  the  eldest  daughter,  retained  the  whole  inhe- 
ritance,  rendering  no  part  thereof  to  Joan,  the  youngest  daugh- 
ter,  who  was  raarried  to  Peter  Baudrat,  of  Poictou,  by  whom 
she  had  a  son  and  heir  named  Peter,  who,  in  14  Edw.  I.,  ^ued 
his  aunt  Maud  for  his  mother's  portion.  Afterwards  Peter 
acknowledged  that  he  had  released  and  quit  claimed  to  the  King 
all  the  right  which  he  had  in  the  inheritance.  Afterwards  came 
one  Peter  Mallore,  who  had  married  RabePs  widow,  Maud, 
alleging  error,  in  that  Peter  Baudrat,  being  an  alien  born  in 
parts  beyond  the  seas,  had  no  legal  claim  to  any  part  of  said  in- 
heritance.  This  plea  was  overruled,  as  to  Peter  Baudrat,  because 
the  King  having  granted  the  wardship  and  marriage  of  both  the 
coheirs  to  EHas  de  Rabel,  whatever  EHas  did  under  that  grant 
must  be  considered  as  done  by  reason  of  the  King's  gift ;  and 
it  would  be  contrary  to  law  to  disinherit  any  one  who  held 
under  the  King's  gift ;  therefore  Mallore  could  not  recover  :  and 
as  Peter  Baudrat  had  surrendered  all  his  right  to  the  King,  it  was

on  Lord  Basset's  (her  brother's)  death.  This,  however,  is  explained  by  the 
fact  of  a  great  part  of  Lord  Basset's  lands  being  otherwise  settled  by 
an  old  entail,  made  by  Ralph  Lord  Basset,  his  grandfather,  in  the  13th 
of  Edward  III.  by  which  it  appears  they  reverted,  on  the  extinction  of 
male  issue  from  Ralph  Lord  Basset,  who  died  in  1313,  to  the  descend- 
ants  of  his  sister  Margaret. 

Glover's  pedigree  of  Shirley  at  Eatington,  made  at  tbe  request  of 
Sir  George  Shirley  in  15S3,  and  of  which  that  in  the  CoUege  of  Arms 
is  the  draft,  calls  Isabella  Basset,  "  Isabella  soror  D'ni  Radulfi  do- 
mini  Basset  de  Drayto7i  suefamilie  ultimi."     On  the  other  hand, 

He  does  not,  however,  give  the  quartering  of  Basset  of  Drayton 
among  the  Shirley  quarterings,  but  ascribes  to  her  the  coat  of  Basset 
of  Drayton,  wilhout  the  bar  siuister. 

I  do  uot  find  the  coat  of  Basset  of  Drayton  among  the  Shirley  quar- 
terings  till  about  1630,  since  which  time  they  have  been  generally  in- 
cluded. 

The  Basset  property,  touching  which  Sir  Ralph  Shirley  had  a  memo- 
rable  dispute  with  the  £arl  of  Stafford,  remained  in  the  Shirley  family 
till  the  death  of  the  last  Robert  Earl  Ferrers  in  1827,  and  was  by  his 
Lordship  entailed  upon  a  natural  daughter  of  his  son  Robert  Sewallis, 
Viscount  Tamworth.  This  daughter  is  the  present  Duchess  of  Sforza 
Cesarini,  having  married,  in  1837,  Lorenzo  Sforza,  Duke  of  Sforza 
Cesarini.

DESCBIPTION    OF    A    PICTURE    OF   THE    FAMILY    OF   HONING, 
TEMP.    ELIZ.    WITH    THEIR    PEDIGREE. 

The  family  of  Honing  probably  dcrived  its  name  from  a  parisli  in 
Norfolk,  so  called.  William  Honinjy,  Esq.  who  vvas  Clerk  of  the  Signet 
in  the  reigns  of  Henry  VIII.  Edward  VI.  and  probably  Elizabeth,  it 
may  be  presumed  was  introduced  into  service  at  Court  bv  the  circum- 
stanceof  his  father  beingemployed  as  fishmonger  to  the  royalhousehold. 
The  epitaph  of  the  father,  formerly  in  the  church  of  St.  Nicholas 
Coldabbey,  near  London-bridge,  is  thus  recorded  by  Weever  : — 

"  Pray  for  the  soul  of  Roger  Hunning,  fishmonger,  sometime  por- 
ueyor  of  seafish  to  our  Soueraigne  Lord  King  Henry  the  Eight,  and 
Margarett  his  wyff,  the  which  Roger  decessyd  the  third  day  of  May, 
An.  Dom.  M.cccccxli.  whos  soul  Jesu  pardon.     Amen." 

In  1544  Wilham  Hunnynge  (or  Honing)  had  a  grant  of  the  manor  of 
Carleton  in  Suffolk.  a  On  the  16th  June  1546,  he  obtained  a  lease  for 
twenty-one  years  of  the  capital  messuage  called  Gubbins,  in  the  pa- 
rishes  of  North  Mimms,  Hatfiehi,  and  Essenden,  Herts,  at  the  yearly 
rent  of  50/.  9s.  8rf.  »  In  1547  he  received  from  Edvvard  VI.  a  confirma- 
tion  of  certain  tenements  in  London  and  in  Suifolk.  c  In  Feb.  1550 
he  had  a  grant  of  the  fee-siraple  of  the  prebend  of  Cheping  Faringdon, 
co.  Berks,  belonging  to  the  church  of  Salisbury.  i^  In  1558,  during 
the  reign  of  Philip  and  Mary,  he  received,  in  conjunction  with  (his 
brother-in-law)  Nicholas  Cutler,  a  grant  of  the  manor  of  Rishangles  in 
Suflfolk.  e  In  1566  he  acquired  the  manor  of  Manton's  in  Hitcham, 
in  Suffolk.  f

400  FAMILY    OF    HONI?JG_,   TEMP.    ELIZ. 

Among  the  State  Papers  preserved  in  the  British  Museum,  are  the 
foUowing,  written  by  William  Honing  : —

Three  letters  of  news  to  the  Earl  of  Sussex,  then  Lieutenant  of  Ire- 

land,  being  regular  news  letters,  and  chiefly  written  by  another  person ; 

bnt  with  additions  from  Honing's  own  hand,  who  signs  his  name  W. 

HoNYNG.     They  are  scattered  as  follows  : — 

1560.  July  25.     MS.  Cotton.  Tit.  B.  n.  p.  419.    Partly  printed  in

At  Edward  the  Sixth's  funeral  in  1554,  William  Honnynges  was  one 
of  the  5  Clerks  of  the  Signett  attending,  and  received  "  9  yardes  of

a  hundred  and  eleven."  Stowe's  Chronicle. 

'  After  mentioning  the  death  of  the  Earl  of  Shrewsbury,  this  letter  contains  the 
foUowing  paragraph  relating  to  the  unfortunate  Amy  Robsart,  wife  of  Lord  Robert 
Dudley  (and  popularly,  but  incorrectly,  called  Countess  of  Leicester)  : 

"  This  sayd  berer  seeth  the  corte  stuffed  w""  morners  (yea  many  of  the  better

Vol.  V.  p.  298,  note  «.  The  Sir  Richard  Lloyd  noticed  in  note  ^, 
was,  as  W.  W.  E.  W^ynne  of  Peniarth,  co.  Merioneth,  Esq.  informsme, 
of  Esclusham,  near  Wrexham,  and  of  Dulassey,  co.  Carnarvon.  He  was 
one  of  the  Judges  on  the  Brecon  circuit,  was  knighted  by  King 
Charles  I.  at  Wrexhara,  for  his  eminent  services  in  the  Royal  cause, 
and  dying  at  that  place  Aug,  5,  1676,  was  buried  in  the  church,  where 
an  uninscribed  monument,  on  which  are  emblazoned  the  armorial  in- 
signia  of  his  family,  was  put  up  to  his  memory.  He  married  Margaret

of  Colonel  Ralph  Sneyd,  by  whom  he  had  two  sons,  Richard,  who  died 
without  issue  in  November  1658  ;  and  Robert,  who  left  an  only  child, 
Richard,  who  died  without  issue  April  9,  1683  ;  also  three  daughters, 
ultimately  coheiresses  to  his  property  ;  viz.  Jane,  who  married  Lewis 
Owen,  of  Peniarth  (above  mentioned),  Esq.  M.P.  for  co.  Merioneth 
1659  ;  Mary.  married  to  Sir  Henry  Conway,  of  Bodryddan,  co.  Flint, 
Bart. ;  and  Anne,  married  first  to  Edward  Ravenscroft,  of  Bretton,  co. 
Flint,  and  secondly,  to  John,  third  son  of  Roger  Grosvenor,  of  Eaton 
Hall,  co.  Chester,  Esq.  G,  M. 

VoL.  VI.  p.  1 90.  In  the  registers  of  the  parish  of  Howden  there  are 
several  entries  relating  to  the  Girlington  family,  from  which  it  appears 
that,  in  1590,  Nicholas  Girlington,  Esq.  the  last  named  but  one  of  the 
Hackford  branch  in  the  pedigree  (p.  191)  resided  at  Sandhall,  in  the 
parish  of  Howden.  This  estate  is  in  the  township  of  Skelton,  and  lies 
near,  and  is  almost  inclosed  by  the  banks  of  the  river  Ouse,  and  is  op- 
posite  to  the  new  port  of  Goole.  In  Johnston's  MSS.  relating  to  the 
county  of  York,  it  is  said  that  the  widow  of  Sir  John  Girlington  (fourth 
son  and  successor  of  the  above  Nicholas )  sold  Sandhall  to  Mr.  Walter 
Blakiston  of  York.  In  the  Babthorpe  pedigree,  inserted  in  Burton's 
Monasticon  Ebor.  this  lady  is  called  *'  Christian  ;  "  she  was  the  only 
child  of  Sir  Williara  Babthorpe,  of  Babthorpe,  in  the  parish  of  Heming- 
borough,  near  Howden,  by  his  second  wife,  Frances,  daughter  of  Sir 
Thoraas  Dawnay,  of  Sez-hay.

The  estate  of  Sandhall  was  sold  by  the  said  Mr.  Walter  Blakiston  to 
Henry  Thompson,  Esq.  one  of  the  Aldermen  of  York,  whose  son 
Leonard  Thorapson,  Esq.,  also  an  Alderman  of  York,  enjoyed  it  in 
1670. 

Previously  to  the  year  1730,  Sandhall  became  the  property  of  John 
Scholfield,  Esq.  whose  grandson  William  Scholfield,  Esq.  is  now  (1840) 
the  owner  of  and  resides  at  Sandhall.

the  family  of  Hungate  of  York)  containing  abstracts  of  deeds,  &c.  re- 
lating  to  the  farnily  of  Methara,  of  Metham,  there  is  the  following 
entry :  — 

"  Robert  Craynes,  of  Saltmarsh,  yeoman^  gives  to  Sir  Thomas  Me- 
tham  all  his  lands,  tenements,  &c.  in  Greenoak,  in  the  parish  of  East- 
rington,  in  the  county  of  York,  which  had  been  lately  given  to  hira  by 
Thomas  Metham  for  the  term  of  his  life  ;  after  his  decease  to  Margery 
the  wife  of  Nicholas  Girlington,  lately  the  wife  of  Alexander  Metham 
for  the  term  of  her  life  ;  after  her  decease  to  go  to  William  Metham 
and  his  heirs  male ;  if  he  dies  without  such,  then  to  remain  for  ever 
with  the  heirs  at  law  of  the  said  Thomas  Metham.  Dated  1 2  Hen.  VIII." 
Dorchester.  James  Savagk. 

P.  397,  note  ".  Troth,  daughter  and  heir  of  Grey  Jermyn  Grove, 
Esq.  said  to  be  living  in  1822,  subsequently  married  the  Rev.  Richard 
Jenkyns,  D.D.  Master  of  Baliol  CoUege,  Oxford,  and  Prebendary  of 
Wells,  and  is  still  living,  one  of  the  coheirs  of  the  Barony  of  Fitz- 
warine. 

VoL.  VII.  p.  41.  The  term  "  Cardinars  hat"  was  here  employed 
unadvisedly.  The  ensign  usually  called  a  CardinaVs  hat,  is  varied  so 
as  to  designate  the  several  ranks  of — 1.  Cardinals ;  2.  Patriarchs  3  3. 
Archbishops ;  4.  Bishops  ;  5.  Abbats  ;  and  6.  the  Prothonotaries  of  the 
Holy  See,  In  modern  blazonry,  that  of  the  Cardinals  alone  has  /ive 
rows  of  tufts  or  tassels,  making  fifteen  in  all ;  the  hats  of  Patriarchs  and 
Archbishops  have  four  rows,  making  ten  tassels  ;  those  of  Bishops  three 
rows,  making  six  :  and  those  of  Abbats  and  the  Prothonotaries  two, 
making  only  three  tassels.  Again,  the  colour  of  the  Cardinars  hat 
alone  is  red ;  that  of  the  three  next  grades  green  ;  and  that  of  the  two 
last  black.  Thus  there  are  three  varieties  of  colour  and  four  of  tassels. 
Of  course  the  hats  over  the  arms  of  Archbishop  Jaraes  de  Bethune  and 
Bishop  Murray  (described  in  the  page  above  mentioned)  are  those  be- 
longing  to  their  respective  dignities.  The  hat  on  the  monuraent  of 
Bishop  0'MoIony  at  the  Irish  CoIIege  (see  p.  117)  is,  however,  that 
which  properly  belongs  to  the  archiepiscopal  grade. — In  p.  32  and 
p.  34,  Archbishop  Jaraes  de  Bethune  or  Beatoun  is  inadvertently  styled 
Cardinal,  an  inaccuracy  which  confuses  hira  with  his  raore  distinguished 
kinsman,  David,  also  Archbishop  of  St.  Audrew's. 

P.  84.  The  monument  at  Charlton  is  certainly  that  of  Sir  Henry 
Knyvett.  The  recumbent  figures  are  under  a  canopy,  which  is  sup- 
ported  by  Corinthian  colurans.  The  shield  of  arras  and  the  crest  are  at 
the  foot  of  the  monument  facing  the  figures.  The  shield  bears  Knyvett 
with  18  quarterings,  viz.  1.  Basset  of  Weldon  ;  2.  Bottetourt  of  Men- 
dleshara;  3.  Clifton  of  Buckenham  ;  4.  Cayley  ;  5.  Crorawell ;  6.  Ber- 
nake:  7.  Driby ;  8.  Tateshall;  9.  Albini ;  10.  Chester;  11.  Lupus; 
12.  Pickering;   13.  Lascelles ;    14.    Moresby;    15,  16,   17,  and    18,

Thi»  day  is  puhlished,  in  Royal  Octavo, 
A  NEW  AND  IMPROVED  EDITION  OF  AN 

ENCYCLOPEDIA    OF    ANTiaUlTIES, 

AND 

ELEMENTS  OF  ARCH^OLOGY, 

CLASSICAL  AND  MEDI^VAL. 

BY  THE  REV.  T.  D.   FOSBROKE,  M.A.  F.S.A..  &c.  &c. 

Fifteen  years  have  elapsed  since  the  first  publication  of  this  work  :  and  the 
Publishers  having  called  on  the  Author  for  a  new  Edition,  he  has  endeavoured 
to  make  it  more  worthy  of  the  very  favoarable  reception  it  met  with  on  its 
first  appearance.  Some  of  the  Chapters  have  been  entirely  re-modelled ;  and 
knportant  additions  have  been  incorporated  throughout ;  which  improvements 
have  been  accomplished  without  difficulty,  from  the  compressed  mode  in  which 
the  new  Edition  has  been  printed ;  a  form  which  has  been  adopted  to  meet 
the  demand  for  cheap  and  useful  books. 


THE  first  Edition  of  this  Work  was  favourably  noticed  in  all  the  Reviews ;  and 
the  following  selections  will  enable  the  Readers  to  judge  of  the  contents  of  the  volumes 
now  again  submitted  to  the  pubUc. 

"  Devoted  as  we  are  to  every  pursuit  connected  with  '  olden  times,'  we  cannot  but 
hail  with  satisfaction  the  publication  of  this  long  expected  work.  To  descant  on  its 
utility  would  be  altogether  unnecessary." — Gent.  Mag. 

"  A  valuable  book  of  reference. — The  science  of  Archseology  is  deeply  indebted  to 
Mr.  Fosbroke  for  accomphshing  the  double  purpose  of  inducing  its  study  in  the  un- 
learned,  and  compiUng  a  valuable  manual  for  the  lcEirned.  He  has  explored  the  mine 
of  Archseological  antiquity,  and  classed  and  euranged  its  products  very  ably  for  the 
advantage  of  all  who  desire  to  cultivate  a  science.  without  an  adequate  knowledge  of 
which,   no  person  can  deserve  the  name  of  antiquary,  amateur,  or  gentleman." — 

LlTEKARY  GaZETTE. 

"  A  work  as  original  as  it  is  important. — We  have  so  often  had  occasion  to  speak 
of  the  talents,  research,  and  acuteness,  displayed  by  Mr.  Fosbroke,  in  his  Encyclo- 
psedia  of  Antiquities,  that  we  feel  at  a  loss  even  to  vary  the  terms  of  our  praise. 
Although  from  the  nature  of  the  subject  it  might  be  expected  to  consist  of  dry  details, 
and  fit  only  for  the  antiquary,  yet  the  author  has  thrown  in  so  many  curious  illustra- 
ti\e  facts,  that  it  is  really  very  interesting.  It  is  elegantly  written,  and  full  of  interest- 
ing  information,  with  which  every  person  of  liberal  education  ought  to  be  acquainted. 
No  good  hbreuy  ought  to  be  withoutit." — Literary  Chronicle. 

"  Mr.  Fosbroke's  Work  is  one  of  great  value  and  interest.  It  is  arranged  in  a 
classified  chronological  form,  so  as  to  lead  the  reader,  pedeientim,  from  the  base  of 
Archaeology  to  its  summit. 

"  After  some  introductory  remarks,  Mr.  Fosbroke  proceeds,  in  his  first  Chapter,  to 
a  description  of  the  Cyclopean  Masonry,  the  general  style  of  whichis  immense  blocks 
without  cement.  Mr.  F.  then  proceeds  to  notice  the  Indian,  Phenician,  orTYRiAN 
Architecture. 

"  In  the  second  Chapter  Mr.  F.  describes  Egyptian  Architecture,  under  the 
several  classes  of  Temples,  Palaces,  Tombs,  Pyramids,  Obelisks,  and  Colossal  Figures. 

"  Grecian  and  Roman  Architecture  comes  under  consideration  in  the  Third 
Chapter  ;  and  in  this  branch  of  his  subject  the  Author  displays  the  same  diligent  re- 
searcb,  acute  remarks,  and  philosophic  views,  whilst  he  brings  down  the  history  of 
Ancient  Architecture  in  a  chronological  and  scientific  order  of  arrangement.  The 
Doric,  lonic,  and  Corinthian  orders  are  discriminated  ;  after  which  the  different  kinds 
of  walling,  bricks,  mortar,  ceilings,  windows,  floors,  and  other  minute  points,  are  de- 
scribed. 


New  Edition  qf  Foshrokes  Encyclopedia  of  Antiquities. 

"  In  the  Fourth  Chapter,  the  Public  Edifices  of  the  Grekks  and  Romans  are 
tninutely  considered,  particularly  their  temples,  theatres  (a  very  curious  article), 
amphitheatres,  aqueducts,  bridges,  town-walls,  gates,  acropoles,  forums,  basilicee, 
triumphal  arches,  baths,  barracks,  light-houses,  and  puteals. 

"  The  Private  Edifices  of  the  Greeks  and  Romans  form  the  subject  of  the  Fifth 
Chapter.  These  are  minutely  and  ably  described,  and  illustrated  by  existing  speci- 
mens  at  Pompeii. 

"  The  Sixth  Chapter  is  devoted  to  the  Architecture  of  the  Britons,  Anglo-Saxons, 
Normans,  and  English.     Here  Mr.  Fosbroke  displays  the  most  elaborate  research. 

"  The  Seventh  Chapter  gives  an  account  of  Egyptian,  Etruscan,  and  Greek 
Sculpture,  including  an  alphabetical  List  of  Deities,  with  their  different  attributes. 

"  The  subjects  treated  of  in  the  Eighth  Chapter  are  Greek,  Etruscan,  Gauhsh,  and 
British  Vases,  with  an  alphabetical  list  of  the  Vases  of  the  classical  era.  This  is  fol- 
lowed  by  dissertations  on  Gems,  Rings,  Seals,  &c. 

"  The  Ninth  Chapter  contains,  in  alphabetical  arrangement,  ample  descriptions  of 
Furniture,  Utensils,  and  Mechanicals. 

"  The  Tenth  Chapter  embraces  Manufactures,  Trades,  Inventions,  Useful  Arts, 
Ornaments,  Avocations,  Offices,  etc. 

"  The  Eleventh  Chapter  describes  Barrows,  Camps,  Earthquakes,  Roads,  rude 
Stone-works,  &c.  &c. 

"  The  Twelfth  Chapter  treats  of  the  Manners  and  Customs  of  Private  Life  among 
the  Laity  of  all  nations.  This  Chapter  contains  a  vast  quantity  of  curious  matter 
connected  with  our  National  Antiquities. 

"  But  the  Thirteenth  Chapter  will  perhaps  be  found  productive  of  more  amusement 
to  the  general  reader  than  any  other  portion  of  the  Work.  It  embraces  Festivals  at 
particular  Seasons,  arranged  under  each  month ;  Theatricals,  Jugglers,  Tumblers, 
Rope  Dancers ;  Games  of  Skill  and  Chance  ;  Gymnastics  ;  Field  Sports ;  Rustic 
Sports  ;  Children's  Sports  ;  Dancing  ;  and  Musicals. 

"  Distinctions  of  rank  and  honour,  and  heraldic  matters,  as  arms,  badges,  cogni- 
zances,  &c.  form  the  subject  of  the  Fourteenth  Chapter. 

"  In  the  Fifteenth  Chapter  the  Author  notices  Druidical  and  other  Heathen  Super- 
stitions ;  including  lucky  and  unlucky  days,  &c.  Also,  obsolete  ecclesiastical  matters, 
with  accounts  of  hierarchal  oflScers,  now  obsolete  : — Anchorets,  Hermits,  Monks,  Nuns, 
Pilgrims,  Continentes,  &c.  On  these  subjects,  it  is  evident  that  the  Author  is  quite 
au  fait,  as  might  indeed  have  been  inferred  from  the  popularity  of  his  well-known  and 
much-approved  work  on  "  British  Monachism."  Liturgical  Matters  and  Solemnities  ; 
and  Fasts,  Festivals,  and  certain  peculiar  religious  Rites,  conclude  this  Chapter, 

"  In  the  Sixteenth  Chapter,  treating  of  Military  Antiquities,  Mr.  Fosbroke  strongly 
recommends,  by  his  ample  quotations,  '  Sir  S.  Meyrick's  superb  and  learned  work  on 
Armour.' 

"  Inthe  Seventeenth  Chapter  are  classed,  in  separate  alphabetical  lists,  accounts,  as 
connected  with  Archseology,  of  Quadrupeds,  Birds,  Reptiles,  Fish,  Insects,  Vegeta- 
bles,  and  Marbles. 

"  The  Eighteenth  Chapter  appears  to  have  been  compiled  with  great  care.  It  treats 
of  Arms  and  Armour  of  all  periods.  Every  page  of  it  bears  ample  proof  of  the  im- 
portance  of  Sir  S.  Meyrick's  labours  on  those  subjects. 

"  The  Nineteenth  Chapter  comprehends  subjects  similar  to  the  preceding — Military 
Engines,  Projectile  Machines,  and  Fire  Arms,  here  pass  in  review. 

"  The  Twentieth  Chapter  embraces  the  Costumes  of  all  nations,  commencing  with 
the  Egyptian,  Asiatic,  Grecian,  and  Roman,  and  descending  to  the  Anglo-Saxon, 
Danish,  Norman,  and  English,  as  late  as  the  end  of  the  17th  century.  Some  general 
Remarks  for  ascertaining  the  Eras  of  Figures  in  the  Middle  Ages  are  concise  and  useful. 
These  are  foUowed  by  descriptions  of  various  articles  of  dress,  alphabetically  arranged. 

"  The  Twenty-first  Chapter  enters  on  the  subject  of  Numismatics. 

"  Such  is  a  brief  outline  of  the  contents  of  this  elaborate  undertaking.  But  the 
whole  Work  should  be  considered  as  a  grand  panorama,  and  not  a  coUection  of  land- 
scapes  or  details.  We  again  congratulate  the  learned  Author  on  thus  fulfilling  his 
engagements  with  his  Subscribers  by  presenting  to  them  and  to  the  Public  in  general 
a  highly  useful  and  standard  Work  on  the  subjects  which  have  never  before  been  so 
fiuccessfully  embodied."
